Because $PAGER is not a variable set or used by the shell.

Well, is there some security concern in Zsh reading it? Why not
initialize READNULLCMD as follows (converted to equivalent C code, of
course)?
READNULLCMD=${PAGER:-more}
I mean, I set PAGER because I don't want more(1) (or less(1) for that
matter) to be invoked by most other programs that need a PAGER.

Off topic, but if you are using most instead of less just for color
support, you might find happiness with
if [ $terminfo[colors] -ge 8 ]
then
export LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$'\E[01;31m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\E[01;31m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_se=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[01;44;33m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\E[01;32m'
fi
