That is certainly not true. TPUT from the very beginning had an ASID=
option (well, in pre-MVS days it was TJID=, which is actually still
there as an alias for ASID=) and that allows a TPUT from any
environment to send a message to a logged-on TSO user. Now there may
be some constraints on this, and a subsystem like CICS may not
appreciate SVCs being issued, but certainly there is no general
restriction or authorization requirement to TPUT to another address
space.

We're talking about something quite different. PUTLINE/GETLINE are one
layer up, and will invoke either TPUT/TGET if at a terminal, or QSAM
PUT/GET if not.
