Can you explain to me why so many people seem to use ZA, when KPF seems
so much better (to me at least?).

It never defuncted :-) I've been using it since it was TPF, Kerio
changed the name but it's always been available - it's basically the
packet filtering functionality from WinRoute with a bit added on to do
checksums for apps. I'm not sure what the "new" TPF is about - guess
it's a spinoff by one of the original developers.
