Yes, though it was never clear what you meant by special treatment.

When {no da broda} is true, i.e. when there is no thing x such that
x brodas, zo'e cannot refer to a thing that brodas, because there
aren't any. That seems clear enough.

{zo'e} is not a replacement for words. {zo'e} refers to things.
(Those things can eventually be referred to by other means as well,
using other words, but that's not what's important about {zo'e}.)

The value zero, i.e. (li no), is a perfectly valid value for {zo'e}
to refer to.
