This is a matter of opinion.

My opinion is that 1-based indexing really exacerbates off-by-one errors, besides requiring a more complex implementation in compilers, which is more bug-prone (with 1-based addressing, the compilers must create and use, in a manner transparent for the programmer, pointers that do not point to the intended object but towards an invalid location before the object, which must never be accessed through the pointer; this is why using 1-based addressing was easier in languages without pointers, like the original FORTRAN, but it would have been more difficult in languages that allow pointers, like C, the difficulty being in avoiding to expose the internal representation of pointers to the programmer).

Off-by-one errors are caused by mixing conventions for expressing indices and ranges.

If you always use a consistent convention, e.g. 0-based indexing together with half-open intervals, where the count of elements equals the difference between the interval bounds, there are no chances for ever making off-by-one errors.
