Why zero values not NULL?

[frederikhors]

Coming from go-pg I've always had zero values saved as NULL in postgres.

Can I ask you why did you decide to change this in Bun?

Is there an advantage in some sense? Performances? Disk space?

And how do I filter now? Example: if I have a time.Time column now the value in DB is 0001-01-01 00:00:00+00 instead of NULL.

Before I was using something like where date != NULL, what to do now? Maybe where date > 0001-01-01 00:00:00+00?

Because it makes sense to disable the feature that some users don't want or don't expect.

My question was to understand what has changed to make you change your mind from go-pg to bun about zero values to null?
