Does the ECB list include the ECB for the subtask?

Not unless the main task is ABENDing.

Why would it change?

If there is an ABEND of the main task, the ESTAE requests a retry and
the retry routine determines that it is safe, then yes. You might have
to clean up the ECB.

Why not just include the subtask ECB in the wait list?
