@SMcNeill said it best, but here's another way to look at it :
The LAST day of the year 1 BC was the day before the FIRST day of the year AD 1.
_IF_ there was a year 0, it would have been 0 days long!
Would there be a 0 BC _and_ an AD 0 --- there's not a -0 or a +0, there's only a 0 --- zero is a rational whole number that is neither negative nor positive.
