I find that the only reasonable complaint that can be made about Lua is the from-1 indexing. Like: "I found this really awesome language and it's ONLY wart is that it doesn't index arrays like every other programming language in the world".

Yet, I still admire the Lua creators for making this bold choice. Why should we use from-0 indexing for all eternity? Just because it's always been that way? This is a real question if you have the answer.
