Possibility of adding SRID 0 to a MySQL database column of type point?

[Repox]

Hi everyone.

I was trying to add a SRID attribute with the value of 0 to a column in my database.

I tried doing so by writing the following in a migration:

$table->point('coordinate', 0);

I discovered that this didn't work and I had to dive into why this was the case.

I found the culprit in the MySqlGrammer. It rather silently ignores my attempt to set the SRID to 0.

For now, I'm just using DB::statement(...) to achieve my goal, but I'm wondering if there is any particular reason why the modifySrid method requires the SRID value to be greater than 0?
