There is no such thing as “zeroith”. Does not matter which numbers you slap on the tables, the one with the lowest number will always be the first. The word “first” has nothing to do with indices, it’s just an antonym for “last”.

It’s a dead script that was not that common in the first place, in Kievan Rus’ it was even used as a form of encryption in XI—XVI centuries for how little spread it was. It is also very different from modern Cyrillic. So, saying “most Slavs don’t know how to read it” is a bit of an understatement. Noone knows how to read it, apart from some linguists and overzealous Witcher fans.
