These options have no effect, they do not do
what you seem to believe they do. I suggest
you remove them

since you always suggest to remove them *why* do
the exist at all in ./configure --help and not
only their counterpart --disable-xx?

???

typically configure scripts warn about unkonwn params
ffmpeg don't

FFmpeg configure does not warn about unknown parameters,
it errors out, just try "./configure --enable-foo".

The parameters above are not unknown, they are useful
for debugging but not for users, this is why they
are not listed in configure --help (that was what
you both denied and requested, no?).

The options you use in your configure line are to
some degree useless, to some degree they hurt
performance for no gain and some (as --enable-zlib)
do not work the way you (apparently) think they work:
They simply have no effect.
Since the configure line is often needed to
debug issues it is very useful to remove all
unneeded options, especially those that may produce
issues in the future because they never had the
meaning you think they have

when "they simple have no effect" how can they "be useful" for debugging?

which ones hurt performance for no gain?
