it looked to me like he was saying that 0,1,...,d-1 is d-1 digits, yes.
ps, im not retarded, and i know that base d is defined as having d digits, and that generally people would say theres no base 1, since it would have only 1 digit. im part trolling, but part of me also sees that the structure does make sense, so maybe it shouldnt be called base since it doesnt follow the same pattern, but either way it would be an exception, imo.
