Hey guys, please do not start again.

Just think a little and you'll notice that 0 has no logical and reasonable meaning at all (I don't care about CSS definition, spec or whatever). Maybe it is an artificial and conventional way of saying "off". But saying "off" is the same as saying 1 in a strict mathematical sense, not 0.

How can you assure you leave 0 lines in a page?, does it mean your whole paragraph must be rendered in a single page (no leftovers in the previous or following pages)?, what do you do if your paragraph is longer than a page?, how can you strictly follow a 0 instruction?

Maybe it works, maybe it has always worked and maybe it will forever work... Or not... 1 is just safer and more logical. And it doesn't matter if you, (or I), like it or not. It's an absolute mathematical truth (with Gödel's permission). Period.

But if you want to use 0, use it, no problem at all, they are your books... Nobody is forcing you to use 1, it was just a piece of advice. But I repeat DO WHATEVER YOU WANT WITH YOUR BOOKS. (Yes, intentional uppercase).
