...I am now looking at the EXECUTABLE=NO operand of the STORAGE OBTAIN. I already check the z/OS level "02.02.00" or greater to dual path my assembly code.

So I am trying to make sure that the person assembling the code is targeting a z14 or above.
Why? Who cares what kind of machine you're running on? If it's an older machine, you just get the old behavior because the new behavior doesn't exist. On a new machine, you get the new behavior (non-executable storage). Either way, it's all good...
