Have you ever suspected that IBM accepted a Requirement for
nested PROCs in which the submitter had neglected to specify that
all facilities available in first-level PROCs such as referbacks,
overrides, and, yes, restart/recovery should equally be available
in PROCs nested more deeply, perhaps assuming it was implicit?

And IBM, seeing that it wasn't explicit, felt no responsibility
to Do It Right and took all the shortcuts?  Shame on IBM.
