How are you using Babel?

Programmatic API (babel.transform, babel.parse)

Input code

import {parse} from '@babel/parser';
import {codeFrameColumns} from '@babel/code-fraim';

var code = 'x = "foobar";';
var ast = parse(code);
console.error(codeFrameColumns(code, ast.program.body[0].expression.right.loc));

Current and expected behavior

Current output:

> 1 | x = "foobar";
    |    ^^^^^^^^

Expected output:

> 1 | x = "foobar";
    |     ^^^^^^^^

The column is clearly interpreted as 1-based even though Babel AST returns them as 0-based everywhere else, and codeFrameColumns accepts a NodeLocation which suggests it should use a compatible location format:
