Follow up ...

There is also an enrolment setting for versions 3.7,3.6,3.5,and 3.4.   Think for those the following is default:
 
$CFG->enrol_plugins_enabled="manual,guest,self,cohort";

So 'locked out' could be two fold ... auth + enrol method depending. sad

Okay, it's sorted out now. The cause of the suspended accounts appears to be, as implied above, that if a student registered by email, then email-based self-registration must continue to be enabled even after their account has been created (which seems quite a bizarre policy to me). Also, it must be enabled in two different places (also seems strange).
Thank you again, everybody, for your assistance.

Well, not really 'bizarre' if one is allowing password change.

A user who self registered via email based would be sent a confirmation message before change would be made.  If your users were auth via LDAP, then change of password would involve the LDAP server.

As far as 2 places ... site level and course level?

Just think how interesting this will become with 2 factor authentications and/or biometric as well so enjoy the current while you can! smile
