She is right, using 0 index for physical stuff is stupid.
Your rulers start at 1? That sounds annoying.
Your job is to move apples from one bin to another. You pick up the first one and set it in the other bin, and say "zero."?
There's another way to think about it which I actually use. Look in the empty bin and say "zero", then move an apple and say "one".
