Been busy and didn't have a chance to respond before.

The _in_vared completer forces use of _value which calls _default.  A
side-effect of _default is that compctl completions are attempted.

So what you need is:
zstyle ':completion::complete:-value-*:*' use-compctl no

Or if you want it to be specific to vared, something like:
zstyle -e ':completion::complete:-value-*:*' use-compctl '[[
$funcstack = *_in_vared* ]] && reply=no'

which admittedly is a bit convoluted ... _in_vared probably ought to
be doing some style checks of its own rather than pushing everything
down to _value.
