MODERATORS
That is a divisive opinion and not actually a fact
Yeah, it's a matter of convention rather than opinion really, but among US academia the convention is to exclude 0 from the naturals. I think in France they include it.
positive interers with addition are not a monoid though, since the identity element of addition is 0
Okay
I hope that explains everything
Yeah I find it easier to just accept the terminology of natural numbers and whole numbers so we have simple names for both.
