Bart already addressed the actual issue, so I'll just touch on this:

If the array is already populated, "set +A" only replaces its leading
elements, which means existing elements can get left behind.
% arr=({a..j}); typeset -p arr
typeset -a arr=( a b c d e f g h i j )
% set -A arr {1..5}; typeset -p arr
typeset -a arr=( 1 2 3 4 5 )
% set +A arr x y z; typeset -p arr
typeset -a arr=( x y z 4 5 )
I'm not sure why you brought this up. Are you using "set +A"
somewhere?
