I agree, except Air has no permeability, you can't magnetize air. You
can't magnetize brass.


I think you're confusing permeability with susceptibility. Even vacuum

The definition I found for:
Permeability (electromagnetism), is the degree of magnetization of a
material in response to a magnetic field

In this case 1 means no permeability.
