from man zsh:
The usual zsh startup/shutdown scripts are not executed. Login
shells source /etc/profile followed by $HOME/.profile. If the ENV

Wrong. Neither bash nor zsh nor tcsh source /etc/profile.d out of them
selves. I don't know (and care) about (t)csh, to be honest, but bash and
zsh source /etc/profile. In /etc/profile, you'll find something like:
for profile in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
source $profile
done
And further, if you add something to /etc/profile, it will also be available
in zsh, which proves that your statement is wrong.
