> adding/subtracting by 1 is a billion times easier to understand than adding/subtracting 42.

Ok, then add start your indices with something else 1 or 2, -1 would be best but probably not well supported. Whatever you aren't used to.

Also why is substracting a small number such a problem? I never found adding/substracting 1, much more difficult than 42. It's just math.

If the answer to your question is not self-evident, then I don't know of any words that will convince you.
