$1^x = 1^y$, and $x,y \in \mathbb{R}$.
Following the rule, same base has powers equal every $x$ should be equal to every $y$. $$1^x = 1^y$$ $$x = y$$ What went wrong?

$1^x=1^y$ does not imply $x=y$:
$$x\cdot \ln(1)=y\cdot\ln(1)$$ $$x \cdot 0=y\cdot 0$$
Note that $x,y$ can be anything- including different values, i.e., $x ≠y.$
The rule you mention is incorrect.
