My question is then why did it ever matter? Since there was no lower-case needed for specific parms why not simply make JCL case insensitive. It certainly would've helped in those days of the 3270 AA/Aa button.

With so much lower case required in JCL, now, there are too many people having to resubmit jobs because of JCL errors due to lower case elsewhere. We can't just set SPF up for CAPS in our JCL libraries, anymore. -- I cannot receive mail at the address this was sent from.
