The problems really start when we write tests for builtins, which we will
(`we' possibly being a euphemism in this case), and which could
proliferate. There's no world digit shortage; we could just use
three-digit numbers along the lines of
0XX shell syntax
1XX builtins (i.e. builtin builtins)
2XX zmodload and modules
3XX zpty and interactive features
which means it's easy to remember where numbers for the group you're
writing tests in run out, and guarantees no more renumbering until zsh 8.0.
