In which sense are you using the word “literally” in your posts?
Notice the difference in two sentences. One of them is correct and the other one is wrong.
“No one” doesn’t usually mean “a number of people which is equal to zero”. ”No one” doesn’t literally mean “a number of people which is equal to zero”.

You are misparsing the sentence. “No one” doesn’t mean “zero”, as it would mean if taken in a literal manner.
You want to rephrase that sentence, as it’s very easy to misparse the way Lumifer did.
