I contacted the FTP owners and here is what they had to say: We have the same code FTP code base supporting the various z/OS environments (USS, TSO, Batch, etc.) FTP issues a RACROUTE EXTRACT to retrieve the TSO prefix and, if found, uses it as the HLQ; otherwise, the userid is used as the HLQ. Looking at the release IDs in the code, we've been doing this since TCP V3R1 (i.e., this is ancient code).
So if we were to change this behavior, it could cause existing code to fail. In general, we don't make incompatible changes and try to find a way to accept new requirements that allow compatibility to persist.
