(And several similar examples in comments.)

These are not equivalent.  Is it really correct to change it this way?
The actual equivalent of the "compstyle" statement would be 

	zstyle ':completion*:options' prefix-hidden yes

While I'm on the topic, should there be a ':' before the '*' in that
example?  One of the defaults installed by compinit itself comes out
like 
	zstyle ':completion*:default' list-colors ...

whereas all the others resemble one of

	zstyle :completion:correct: prompt 'correct to:'
or
	zstyle ':completion:*' verbose yes

which makes me wonder if it should be

	zstyle ':completion:*:default' list-colors ...

Clue me on the subtlety, please.
