DetailsI'm wondering if this is an intentional decision. I didn't know it before but 4.3.x is the development branch of zsh for the coming stable 4.4. I think my shell is one of the places I don't want dev branch software (even though this seems quite stable). At this point going to 4.2 would seem silly, but perhaps not going to 4.5 when it's released would be prudent.

I don't see your point. This is the only version that is advertised upstream and even Debian oldstable is already using 4.3. Some projects always call their most recent version unstable/in-development etc. no matter what. Do you have any actual problem with 4.3?

No actual problems, I just found out that Zsh uses odd releases to denote development versions. I admit they don't do a good job of advertising it, and don't update stable much (since '08) or really why 4.3 isn't ready for primetime yet.
