This is by no means all that could be said, but just to
get started...
BTW this is more of a zsh-users topic at this point and
there could well be people not on zsh-workers that have
some usage tips.

Zsh is highly configurable and you'll need to understand the possibilities
and how to set it up closest to the way you want before going further
down this road.
I guess you're using some vanilla configuration, but you should certainly
make sure whatever is going on it's running "compinit", or you'll get
the old builtin behaviour, which is certainly not recommended. See
below if this currently means nothing to you.
Apart from the shell options in the shell documentation (a pretty
dense read), you could look at the (somewhat dated --- it's many years
since I touched it --- but still mostly valid) online user guide,
https://zsh.sourceforge.io/Guide/zshguide06.html
See further down in section 6.3 if the reference to "compinit" meant nothing.
For a more professional production, see Oliver's notes in the From Bash
To Zsh book, available everywhere browsers are connected to booksellers.

That's certainly screwy, but you're not getting basic zsh behaviour here,
and I'm not going to try to speculate what is happening. If you're
interested enough (sounds like you are) you'll need to backtrack a bit
and find out what configuration you do have. Probably best to start from
my previous comments (others may have info suggestions).
Probably someone in these parts, or zsh-users, knows more about what's
set up on your distro, with which I'm not familiar.
