No. I believe that 0 is the preferred offset for continued fractions.

There may be (not in your examples) some numbers between 0 and 1 that 
have continued fractions that do not have a leading zero and have 
offset 1, but the preferred form is to include a leading zero and make 
the offset be 0 (as for A002852).

While nosing around continued fraction sequences I saw some have
"offset 0" and some "offset 1".  Is there any meaning to that?
