Using the methodology of:

as a reference template, e^-ix would seem to involve:
(taylor cosine series) - i * (taylor sine series)
or e^-ix = cos x - i sin x = -1
which suggests another twist to the familiar identity:
e^ix * e^-ix = (cos x + i sin x) * (cos x - i sin x) = (cos x)^2 + (sin x)^2 = (-1) ^ 2 = 1 = e^0
