With regard to the first one, I don' think it will generate any ESDs unless you

If you do so, then I think HLASM generates an ESD even in cases where a human 
could tell it was problematic coding. For example

   EXTRN FOO
   DC     A(FOO)
   ORG  *-4
X DC     F'1'

What will X contain at runtime? I don't know, but I know you would be foolish 
to count on it containing anything in particular.

And the rules may be different for CMS, particularly dwith
object zap, which modifies the first TXT record with matching
address in the object file, which may be overridden by
a later one.

Ugh!  Made maintaining patch areas tricky.
