I see several posts over the years regarding differences in the way the newer versions of the PowerShell toolkit are able to retrieve information when using ZAPI calls vs. presumably the REST API.
The response from Support is that this is outside the scope of a technical support case and to start a discussion here on the subject. I am working with my local account team, also.
Anyway... I figured I'd finally post here due to the most recent versions displaying increasingly threatening notifications that support for ZAPI will be dropped. I can collect debug logs if necessary as it is always requested in threads that mention this issue... but hopefully by now that won't be necessary since this isn't a new issue and it should be well known to anyone who uses the PSTK, and hopefully a definitive solution or at least a statement as to the actual status could be posted publicly. Here's an example of some REALLY basic info that's missing when not using ZAPI:
