Not sure what the original point was but curiously I happened to use file on a an Apple .numbers file recently and found that it was a .zip file in disguise with zero compression.
So maybe the point was that it’s used often as a container format more often than it’s used for compression? Just my (unrelated) general computer work would also suggest this.

Zipping a file repeatedly typically doesn’t reduce the size further after the first time.
Yeah duoy you [realistically] can’t compress compressed data…
