You are letting your white hair show!
If everyone had their own, I'd have to point out that 2780 RJE somewhat
predates the venerated SNA. I'd have to say I would then have to refer to
the delights of working with *BSC* products - a simpler world altogether -
but a contentious one.[1]

Careful! You'll be giving the defenders of the true USS a reputation for
being difficult!
I've been tempted to throw in so many spanners like this but I've been
inhibited by a kindness to these less privileged folk who have never even
heard of the delights of working with SNA products.

Strange as it may seem, I actually enjoyed working with SNA. We used a RYO
front end for user authentication at terminal sign-on time, as well as
some fancy "goodies" for RJE stations and remote PC-based access via VPN.
Even supported 2780 RJE stations!
