It's likely that a bigger company, with a bigger IT staff, will submit more jobs and experience more JCL errors.
Todays' PC industry charges "per seat" or "per computer" for most things. If Windows XP runs on every desktop in an organization, the number of copies purchased by a large company will generate proportionally more revenue for Microsoft than the number of copies purchased by a small company.
IBM tried to come up with something similar for mainframes by assuming that larger companies had larger mainframe computing needs. For the most-part, their assumption was correct. The graduated discounts allowed companies of all sizes to run their businesses on a mainframe. It seemed to make sense at the time. In many ways, it still does.
