Cross sysplex sharing is one _good_ reason. It just ain't possible to
do reliably in the general case. The main _bad_ reason is that some
people still have scars from the early days and have an aversion due
to that. I had the same problem back when VSAM first came out. The
need for "suballocation" made the DASD person go nuts because hiss
VTOC listings didn't show the suballocated DSNs. So he wanted to stay
ISAM.
