The "nose" of the periodic table
All of these elements can form compounds in other oxidation states. Aluminium forms some compounds in the +1 state (e.g. see the section in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_iodide), as does Zinc (see the section in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compounds_of_zinc) and Cadmium (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadmium(I)_tetrachloroaluminate). But Silver is the element that shows this most often in the list given - for instance it forms fluorides in the +1, +2 and +3 oxidation states (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_fluoride). As such I wouldn't say including the oxidation states in the formula is wrong, but on the other hand if you omit it everybody who knows there is an ambiguity will understand what is implied.
