Sorry if this was mentioned, i only glanced at the thread, but this type of
check is what _pick_variant is for. It's documented in zshcompsys(1), or you
can grep for it in other completion files to see it in action. In this case,
i guess something like:

  local variant
  _pick_variant -r variant \
    universal='Universal Ctags' \
    exuberant='Exuberant Ctags' \
    emacs=Emacs \
    bsd='usage: ctags' \
    universal \
    --version
