While all of it isn't applicable to zsh: this explains what happened in your case:

Thanks Eric, that works fine. Bart's quoting by itself did not work. Idespair of every really understanding -- parsing in my own head -- howthose syntaxes work. I got as close as " ..."${(f) ... " but managed todrop the ball. Thanks for that link, I had no idea for loops and whileloops were really any different internally, is that widely known?

BTW, is there some way to get typeset to print out just the variables,not the values? As I read the doc the '-m' switch seems not to like the'-H' or '+' switches, so it seems I can't have the globed variable namewith no values printed. It seems an unlikely limitation.
