K3wl. How does that make the current code a logical necessity?

Data trump theories. Nor are your ideas of common sense necessarily

OS/360 did *lot's* of things that violated data integrity.

>When were aliasses invented?

They were certainly present in OS/360, but not in the form that they

CVOL, with the root CVOL called SYSCTLG, and alias entries were only
for the first index level.
