Zahn likely knew that Palpatine was the mastermind of the Clone Wars, as indicated by Palpatine having cloning tech and having created Joruus.

Zahn likely would have used the term “Dark Jedi” instead of the term “Sith”, with “Jedi” referring to anyone who can use The Force. Zahn was going to call the Noghri “the Sith” with Vader’s title coming from his control of them, but Lucasfilm advised Zahn not to do that in case the prequels defined the word “Sith”.

If cloning was more common before the rise of the Empire, the implications are interesting. Maybe the Old Republic era had armies of mad Sith clones.
