Notice that when Alma speaks to Zeezrom he puts Zeezrom on the side of the Lord, claiming that the plan Zeezrom was following was crafted by the enemy of Zeezrom. He also softens the blow of speaking to Zeezrom by name by saying that everything he says applies to the rest of the people too.
Without taking that inclusive approach Zeezrom might not have felt comfortable questioning alma sincerely afterward.
