Because the Catholic archbishops’ zuchettos are amaranth; not black.

The color of the zucchetto in Catholicism denotes the wearer’s rank:

the pope’s and pope emeritus’ zucchetto is white;
those worn by cardinals are scarlet;
those of archbishops, bishops, territorial abbots and territorial prelates are amaranth;
and regular abbots, priests and deacons wear a black zucchetto.

You believe the archbishop is making an interfaith statement?

(You would know better than I, for sure!)

Just seems weird.
