If the concern is that the number 0 would be excused for the letter O
in a block of text, I can see the issue, but I'm certain that English
style manuals say that one digit numbers like 0 in sentences should be
spelled out.
My main bugbear with such issues is things like Captchas.
I appreciate it when the developer takes care to exclude o,0,1,I,l
from the possible letters, as I am really bad at guessing which of
these an example might be :(
In a sentence such as 'you have 0 items in your cart'. one is
unlikely to mistake 0 for o.
