Well, you've told zparseopts that --gnu-tard is an option that takes a
mandatory argument, and you have not told zparseopts that
--gnu-tard-add... is an option, and the argument of an option is
allowed to appear in the same word as the option itself (so that -a2
is the same as -a 2), so zparseopts believes -add... is the argument
of the option you told it about.
