I believe zero makes their potential random and let's the hidden destiny stat due to the work. In the help file it says if you give someone 90 potential then it is expected most of their stats will be around that mark at full potential. If you notice all the default workers potential is zero as well. Zero doesnt mean they will be awful it just means it will be more random

If it is set to 0, which is the default, the AI will calculate his potential based upon his stats. Please note that this stat has absolutely no effect if the fighter is already in his prime (or past it), as his potential has already been realised.
