Other terminals with similar workload have remained alive, so it seems

I would start looking for signals that your terminal (or wayland)
might be sending.  E.g., if this happens to windows that were on
different virtual desktops or that were partly or completely hidden
behind other windows or that were minimized and then popped open, the
shell may be getting a lot of SIGWINCH signals.
Hm, I had cases where terminals have been on the same virtual desktop, with no re-arranging going on at the moment, or since last being used (basically only resuming work in existing windows).
Not sure if SIGWINCH would be sent by just switching virtual desktop (sway).

The other thing I notice is that the configure options in the arch
linux package you used include enabling global startup scripts in
/etc/zsh/, and explicitly enable sourcing /etc/profile.  Is there
anything (else) in your /etc/zsh/ directory?
In /etc/zsh, only zprofile: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/packages/zsh/trunk/zprofile Which references this: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/packages/filesystem/trunk/profile
