We’ve behaved as if it’s possible to pay someone zero shinies, at least. That involves switch manipulation, though I don’t think we’ve ever CFJed that specific set of actions down to the detail needed to determine whether the Balance switches involved are actually flipped. However, you’ve got a point. I should probably record this as a 5-shiny pend, since that’s trivially the minimum allowable amount unless someone has a perverse interpretation of “allowable” in mind.
