10 Skittles < 3 elephrants.
they never specified the order relation, so we can’t really know what they meant by smallest. for all we know, 10 could be the right answer
Obviously he is correct because the smallest base that can represent 10 is base 2 and 10 in base 2 is equal to 2 in base 10. And the smallest base in which you can represent the number 3 is base 4 and 3 in base 10 in equal to 3 so 2 is the smaller number hence “10” is the smaller number. And from the drawing of the rainbow you can infer that he wants to use a diverse range of bases and not just the common base 10. Btw I am only talking about the natural bases (whole number positive).

By some definitions, maybe. However, definitions that exclude it probably do so for a specific reason. It’s more a fluke of categorization than a real world distinction. Those distinctions might be critical to certain logic systems, but even most people who use that definition recognize reality.
Zero is a number in more cases than it isn’t. It is a symbol that represents a value. Just like infinity, it doesn’t matter if 0 doesn’t exist in physical reality. It’s still a useful value in most cases.
