There's a difference between the 1990s and the 200th decade.
The first one is from 1990-1999, the second one from 1991-2000.
I wanted to bang my head against a wall when people celebrated the new millenium even though there was still one year left until the new millenium started.

If a decade started with a 0, you'd not only have two different centuries in one decade, but also the first decade would only have 9 years, as there is no year 0.
