in thread I prefer my indexes to start at:

I can't say that I've ever read a published pure maths paper - if I did it was so long ago I have forgotten.

OTOH, every time I have seen the Fibonacci Sequence defined it has been like this:

  • F0 = 0
  • F1 = 1
  • Fn = Fn-1 + Fn-2 (for n > 1)

Perhaps it is the exception? I voted for zero anyway. Cardinal, not ordinal. But you are right that having the choice is good.
