I happen to like having SYS1.** for (all) IBM targets. Always had a RACF rule for it - and a group SYS1 for that matter. Nowadays have similar for the OMVS started tasks.
And yes, I go change all the ServerPac dsnames that "need" it - not helped by the mish-mash of names shipped. I'm sure I've beaten up on Marna about that.

I can work with whatever the customer dictates, but I also know where I can work most effectively. I work with what they give me - they pay the bill after all.
