It would also complicate things for the users of his system, because
they would have to special-case 0 in their programs. Of course, as
long as the standard allows NAME>INTERPRET to return 0, programmers
have to special-case that in standard programs, but if we can find
consensus on not needing 0 in the next version of the standard, even
standard programs can become simpler.
