You&#x27;re working with a definition of &quot;Zero Bug&quot; that doesn&#x27;t arise from the meanings of &quot;bug&quot; and &quot;zero&quot; combined together in the obvious, orthogonal way.<p>There are such compounds entrenched in the English language (like &quot;new wave&quot; or &quot;blackboard&quot;) but they take decades to enter general use.<p>I don&#x27;t think we need &quot;zero bug&quot; to be a non-compositional compound of this type.  The terms &quot;bug&quot; and &quot;zero&quot; are too significant in computing for us to allow them to be hijacked like this.<p>For instance, we wouldn&#x27;t redefine &quot;zero latency&quot; as being 5 seconds (say, in a situation in which we can&#x27;t get it any shorter for the given span, due to the distance and the speed of light). Latency is latency, zero is zero, and five seconds isn&#x27;t zero.<p>I urge you to reconsider your use of technical language.
