John,
While your statement is true it would seem to me JES2 (JES3?) still
sends out source and as long as it does then statement sequence
numbers are needed. I vaguely remember that IBM at one time said they
were going to stop sending out source for the JES's. They have done
this with new function modules (at least JES2) I don't know if there
is a specific date for the rest of the source.

SMP NEEDS statement numbers.
SMP certainly uses SNs and IEBUPDTE in some contexts. Equally, it
omits to use them in others where it could do so.
It never needs to use them, and it would be well if it had stopped
doing so long ago. Affection for obsolete technology is
understandable, even beguiling; but it is counter-productive.
