Broken as designed?

That is BAD - ie: The design is wrong but the code works as the design says it should.

WAD is Working As Designed - The code works as the design says it should and the design describes the intended result/functioning.

In this case it is WAD if you want to find the entries in any of the PDS and PDS(E) Libraries in the concatenation ignoring any HFS libraries encountered (and if the same name occurs in more than one library, return the first one encountered). It is BAD if you do not want to ignore HFS Libraries in the concatenation.
