Pair values all zero?

Okay, my battle with kerning my font continues!
This morning, I decided to start my kerning all from scratch -- last time I'd "finished" (supposedly), I validated things in the code editor and somehow ended up with tons of overlapping classes, so I started all over from nothing. Now, after a fair bit of fiddling and re-doing of things this morning, I've gotten rid of all those overlapping classes, but I still get a whole ton of instances of "pair values all zero" (for such-and-such a glyph paired with whichever other such glyph).
What do I do about those? There's no clean-up feature to just delete them all, as there is to delete unused classes. Do I just leave them, and that's okay? Or do I have to go through each and every one of them, one-by-one, and delete those lines from the script? There's no automated way to clean that up?
Interestingly, I googled "pair values all zero" (with the quotes, to keep it as a search "phrase") and there's not a single website on the 'net that has that phrase -- not one! And searching for that phrase here in these forums also yields not a single relevant result. Interesting...
