If memory serves, BSC and SDLC terminal controllers existed long before you could assign a CUU to a 3270. And in MVS those were handled by the SNA implementation of the day (VM had native BSC support). Enter the "non-SNA" solution for 3270s. And to differentiate it from "remote" controllers (R models), it is "local" (L models).
