    With the concept of zero, we could express math (and by extension, everything) with just one concept: of there being something. This was contrasted with there not being something.

    This presence/absence of something is very easily implementable in mechanical terms, which contributed to the development of hardware. So: the concept of 0 made our calculations easily physically implementable.
