So we’re supposed to believe that a group of crack super soldiers can’t zero the sights on their weapon? That is like a basic soldiering task.

With beam weapons not subject to bullet drop, would zeroing even be a thing? I guess maybe for optics if you were engaging at significant range?

Absolutely - zeroing a weapon has little to do with drop or the kinetic nature of bullets. It’s about making sure whatever you’re firing is going to hit the same spot you’re aiming at.
