The obvious explanation is that somehow I got the builtin default
(hard-coded into complist.c -- ZLS_COLORS is set (i.e., in this case,
cleared) from the list-color style before the code that uses
$ZLS_COLORS) wrong.  And I love separating single words from the rest
of the sentence by long and nested parentheses.
