You say that like it's some dreadful thing.  If there are bridi that could use {zi'o} (and I assume that there are because otherwise what's the point of having a zi'o word at all if you're never really being correct by using it), then there are going to be times when you're being lazy or in a hurry and want to leave it up to context.  I don't understand what's so undesirable about that.
