zip calls should ideally specify strict=True since most of the time there's an underlying assumption that the input arguments are of equal length. To enforce this we should enable the Ruff rule zip-without-explicit-strict, https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/rules/zip-without-explicit-strict/

Since there are about ~500 occurrences of zip in the code base, this issue should be completed in multiple PRs that adds strict=True to zip calls in a particular directory. Therefore, this issue can be worked on by multiple contributors.

For those interested in working on this issue:

  1. Comment below on which directory you'll be working on. If you want to work on pandas/core, please choose a subdirectory in this location e.g. pandas/core/internals
  2. Submit a PR adding strict=True (or strict=False if necessary) to zip calls

Once all zip calls are have a strict argument, a separate PR will be needed to move "B905" from the ignore section to the select section. https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/98c9c7f838d223e66f1459fab23ac178b29c2227/pyproject.toml#L395

Hi @mroeschke, I created a PR (#62446) that can help the verification of these fixes in CI.
