me for quite some time until today when I decided to track down the cause.

If there is no z or zz mapping this variant is not different from
nnoremap n nzz
nnoremap N Nzz
. You just suggest to disable plugin mapping. The only reason why this
works is because when mapping rhs starts with lhs this part is not remapped.
Files in .vim/after/ directory are loaded just like files in .vim/. Just in
default &runtimepath option .vim/after/ directory is placed after all other
directories, but there nothing else special about it. Plugins like
pathogen/VAM/Vundle usually put other plugin's after/ (but not root)
directories after .vim/after so "after anything else" statement is no
longer true. It is not very common though for plugins to have after/
directories.
