I know/knew nothing of BOS internals, but the JCL looked nothing like DOS
JCL.  (I think a JCL statement started with a single slash.)  If the 
original BOS became DOS, then something else took the name BOS.  DOS and 
BOS coexisted for a while before BOS died.  And DOS still have an 8K
Supervisor version for a couple years after it became DOS (if it was ever
anything else).
