zparseopts allows values to appear immediately after the option. So
--sc3 is taken as being the same as --sc 3
So it thinks you have four --sc options and only the last is kept.

zparseopts was designed for splicing up options to completion functions
where it is common to change them before passing a subset on to other
functions. It may not be ideally suited to other situations.
