Ok. I'll buy that. But NOTE didn't return anything at all until they
wrote it. So I'll regress: These smart people could also have written
NOTEX or QNOTE that returned all that was required to do queued
processing of the member. There must have been some reason they did not.
I hope. What was that reason?

'Way back when I went to OS/360 school at San Jose, I was told that if
you couldn't master the concepts of blocking/deblocking in BSAM, you had
no business "messing around" with BPAM, which was designed as a "add on"
product for BSAM. Maybe that was just "instructor arrogance", but it's
the only reason I was ever given.
