No I don't, sorry.

Zero (0) is a number. Numbers (types int, intNN, float32, ...) cannot have
a nil value. I don't understand how numbers got involved in this discussion
about nil values. They're not related.

But some types allow nil values (chan T, []T, ...). Nil values of such
types are equal to the zero value of that type. So nil values are well
defined.
