Not exactly. Traditional counting would state that the year 2000 is already part of the 2000s, but at the same time it is the last year of the 20th century. This whole debate only extends to the start and end of centuries.
On another note, I don't know if people who defend the existence of the year zero have considered that its addition would generate a funny consequence: any event you can come up with would've actually took place one year before of what the traditional counting says. Thus, Columubs would've actually arrived to the Americas in 1491, World War II would've actually begun in 1938, your birthdate one year earlier and today it would 2017, not 2018. It's only natural when what we consider to be the year 1 now would need to be the year 0.
My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
