Literally, the rule is "parameter assignments may precede only a
simple command."  (In fact the assignment syntax is part of the
definition of simple command syntax.)

Of the set of $reswords from zsh/parameter, "nocorrect" and all of the
aliases for "typeset" may begin a simple command.  The rest may not.
