    It does. 0-11 and 1-12 contain the same (12) amount of hours. Saying “twelve thirty two” just rolls off the tongue easier than “zero thirty two” or “o thirty two”.

    Not to mention zero is a much later invention than the sexagesimal system.

    Also here’s a clock with zero on it.

        Yes except why is no single digit except for 0 zero-padded?

      Also 12 can be divided by many factors (1;2;3;4;6;12) where as 11 is a prime number.
