BCTC is still required if you are running GRS without sysplex.

Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... [sic] 
censorship. When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to 
say to its subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you 
are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter 
how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose 
mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free 
man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not 
anything —you can't conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him.
