What same restriction?

It works fine for HFS.  I used a name like "SYS1.OMVS.ROOT" cataloged
to VOLSER(******) or VOLSER(&SYSR2) for years (since non-sms HFS
was allowed).  See this from my web site / CBT file 434:

Setting Up a Shared UNIX Root File HFS

I had to change the way we were doing things here when I implemented
shared HFS.  The root name (and other sysres set HFS files) must be unique
for that.
