I really don't get the indexing religious wars. I "grew" up on 0-indexed languages, C/C++, assembly, Python, Ruby, Java, Objective-C, Swift etc.
Yet I've never felt problems using 1-based languages whether Lua or Julia.
To me I just switch my mental mode to think I am doing math. I am used to mathematics using 1-indexing. And I am not a physicist or mathematician so it is not like I am steep in this tradition.
Of all things one might object to in a language, I don't grasp this carries so much weight for many people.
