I just did a couple of checks.

If I do a native TSO SUB of a member in a VB/259 dataset, I get the
message:

IKJ56261I RECORD LENGTH OF DATA SET PDS.VBA255 NOT 80,

If I use ICEGENER to copy to INTRDR from the same dataset/member, I see
a "SKIPPING FOR JOB CARD" in the SYSLOG.

ISPF EDIT (which is what SJ used) allocates a "temporary" FB/80 dataset
and copies the data from the edit buffer to it (truncating or padding
with no messages), then does a TSO SUBMIT command against that
"temporary" dataset.
