Actually, SPACE=(0,0) will work just as well, if you can get it past your
SDLC (software development life cycle) software (ours requires
SPACE=(CYL,0), all space allocations must be CYL by fiat).

Will they permit SPACE=(0,(0,0),,CONTIG,ROUND)?

No.  1st arg of SPACE must be CYL, no exceptions. Like I said, it's by fiat,
controlled by JCL scanning software.

Will allocating 0 cylinders succeed if the volume has no
free cylinders?

No clue, never had that situation come up.  Since SMS and storage admins, we
simple programmers can't play games as we once did, like filling up a
particular scratch disk just to see what happens if...
