Supply Levels: When you select Supply Levels and then select a unit, a line will be drawn
from the unit to its supply source. If the unit you select is a non-HQ unit, the line will be drawn
to its higher HQ. If the unit you select is an HQ unit, the line will be drawn to a higher HQ and/
or a Supply Source. The color of the line tells you if the unit is in or out of supply. A green line
indicates a unit that is in supply. A red line indicates that the unit is out of supply. Note that
the line drawn is simply a straight line from one point to another and not the actual path of the
supply line itself.

It is always assumed that units exert a 1-hex border ZoC. I could see some value in visually turning on enemy ZoC, though that has caused a lot of exploits and nonsensical issues in many other games that tried to get FANCY with it.
Anyhow, if a unit is disrupted pretty bad, like level-4 then it's not going to be able to hit you with an E-ZoC anymore... another situation that comes to mind is a tank that is on an opposing side of a river.
In certain actions which require you to know hexes around a unit that are in E-ZoC, you'll know (solid red shading = in-game):
