Oh, JavaScript and it's mysterious ways.

const zero = new Number(0);

if (zero) {
  console.log("zero is truthy!");
} else {
  console.log('zero is false!');
}
zero is truthy! base.js:8272:41
undefined
if (0) {
  console.log("zero is truthy!");
} else {
  console.log('zero is false!');
}
zero is false!
