In our case, simply because makes some things we want to do easier.
Every storage class starts with SC (SCzzzz). For each SCzzzz there
exists exactly one SGzzzz. Therefore, when we do a LISTC or use 3.4 we
can know the storage group name from the storage class name. Yes, I know
this is a perversion of why to have storage classes. Storage classes can
do more. But we don't because we only have a single 2105 Shark. We don't
need to use storage classes for anything in particular, so we use it for
this reason. <shrug>
