Zoroastrianism does not limit conversions. If that were the case from inception the religion would have never flourished in the first place. Zoroastrians who claimed refuge in South Asia agreed not to proselytize as a condition for staying.
That Zoroastrianism is seeing a resurgence is good news for Zoroastrians everywhere. The religion is dying as we speak, due to a low birth rate.

There is division and some groups do allow it, but I've never seen anyone claim that opposing conversion had anything to do with it being a condition for staying.
