I love one-based indexing. I prefer array[1..n] to array[0..n-1]. The reason is because with one-based indexing, I don't have names for things that are invalid. begin, end: these are valid places to be. Your "end" token can mean "the last element", and you don't have to think about "being behind the thing that represents the thing past your last element". I acknowledge it's domain-specific, but I find there's something mentally relaxing about one-based indexing. And I grew up on 0-based.
