Yes, that is true. There are tradeoffs. Zsh does provide a brief
description of each auto-completed flag which you cannot achieve with
--show-options. Perhaps it could be some sort of fallback where if an
option and its description isn't provided, the plain result from
--show-options could be used. Hmmm
