Editorially. Zach was introduced at about the time that Zee was doing her apology tour through the DCU books, and it seemed that the only way to sell a Zee-related character was to make him harmless in the one area that Zee (or, more to the point, Metzger's retcon) had messed up in. It's possible that current writers are forgetting said limitation, and hoping that the readers forget as well. (If Zach's doing half the stuff in his act that Zee does, and cannot use magic on Bunny, he's either a REALLY good magician or lucky.)
