I was re-learning kindergarten maths and something I realized while learning the number system is that counting 10 on our fingers does not make sense, because 10 represents a different magnitude. Its a number from a different universe, its a double digit number which we are using to signify a single digit on ours hands.

The way computers count is entirely right. Nothing is already represented by lack of any representation and that is the most accurate way to represent nothing - Without giving it any property or any way to symbolize it. Simply put - Nothing cannot ever be symbolized. It is simply impossible. Because if we give the concept of "nothing" a symbol, we bring it into existence immediately and make it "something". Even if it is nothing, it now has a UNIQUE value, that means it does EXIST and thus it is no longer absolute nothing. That is why computer scientists have always counted from 0. If I'm not wrong, arrays in all programming languages start with an index of 0. 0 has an existential meaning, its the first of the firsts.

So we need to transition to counting from 0 on our fingers as well. Yes it would feel weird as hell, but when you think about it, representing a double digit number to represent a single digit on our hands is weirder and makes no logical sense.

Prove me wrong faggots.
