No.
Your assumption is false because you have coded a false thing that CANNOT
plot 0 from Plot1.
This comes from very elementary mathematics, not from the language.

No. Neither plot1 nor plot 2 could produce a zero line!
You just discovered that you still have some progess to do when debugging an
EL code.
There is no bug at all in this problem.
Only a bad understanding of EL / EL logic translation, and too fast typing
to report so called bugs to this list.
