Also from
?"["
i, j, ...: indices specifying elements to extract or replace. Indices
are 'numeric' or 'character' vectors or empty (missing) or
'NULL'. Numeric values are coerced to integer as by
'as.integer' (and hence truncated towards zero). Character
vectors will be matched to the 'names' of the object (or for
matrices/arrays, the 'dimnames'): see 'Character indices'
below for further details.
So yes, in this case 0 is treated as integer(0).
When you have problems that seem odd to you, carefully reading the
relevant help is always a good place to start.
