The problem with these options is that they are costly. Zero-ohm resistors are low cost and offer excellent electrical performance.
Zero-ohm resistors
A Zero-ohm resistors is simply a resistor with zero ohms. It’s a through-hole resistor that has been manufactured to have zero ohm of resistance and is marked with a single black band. A surface-mount ceramic resistor has single or multiple numbers of zeros to represent the zero-ohm resistance. It is pretty much like a jumper wire that is shaped like a resistor. Why do you need a zero-ohm resistor? Why not just use a jumper?
