At my shop, I'd say they deserved what they get :) 

I took the other direction on this. When the extended stuff became
available, we were DASD poor and frequent x37. I made striped and
extended the default for most everything and my ACS routines grant
exceptions where required. So I can use &DSORG = 'PO' use non-extended
dataclass.

Ron mentioned that DSORG would be set to PO or VS, with whatever is left
over, is PS. Not true.
There might still be a few folks allocating DSORG=DA files too.
Old PL/I and very Old COBOL supported this DSORG and programs written
in these languages could still be around. HLASM still supports DSORG=DA.
