ZeroVer is obviously satire, but doesn't it just demonstrate that "Semantic Versioning" works great as a theory, but struggles to keep up with the nuances of the real world? I have multiple sub components of our system that are effectively ZeroVer, not because I love zero ver at all, but because basically a simple linear integer would have worked, so I just let the patch field roll so that Debian/Apple/Elixir/whatever tooling stays happy. For customer facing stuff, I've moved to calendar versioning (2021.08.12). It's easier and no or more less effective than arbitrary and debatable decisions to encodify some value when major/minor/patch changes.
