I think 0 has to always be in the set of digits because any number X can be written 0X, e.g. 1 = 01. See the derivation in the comment you replied to 😁
I don’t know if it has a base designation, but there is a way to represent natural numbers without 0. You just use 1, and numbers are distinguished by the number of 1s. So you’d count 1 11 111 1111 11111 and so on.

I think it would also be {1,0}, because π = (…00010.000…)_π, right?

If your only digit is pi, I believe it’s {1}
