Why would anyone welcome a change that merely diminishes

Paul,
I accidentally sent an e-mail to the list that was intended to go
directly (off-list) to Tom Marchant.
I don't really have time right now to provide all of the background you
would need to understand how this is used and in what context. Suffice
to say that the customers that requested (and gladly received) this
enhancement were in no way suffering from diminished cognitive capacity.
They knew what they were asking for, we agreed it was a valuable
enhancement, and it resulted in no loss of function whatsoever. It has
nothing to do with how the DISP= keyword is treated in JCL.
