Why Ruby is no longer my language of choice
The Numeric#zero? method returns true if the number is 0 and false if it is not. The Numeric#nonzero? method returns nil if the number is 0 and the number itself if it is not.

"The Numeric#zero? method returns true if the number is 0 and false if it is not. The Numeric#nonzero? method returns nil if the number is 0 and the number itself if it is not."

Inconsistent maybe, but of no consequence when used in conditionals (where nil evaluates to false).
