Sorry, you're right of course, non-exact speaking on my part ...
I first had to check the German meaning of "dope" in this context to

Of course, if the called program is PL/1, things get complicated
again, because PL/1 needs descriptors (called dope vectors in
earlier releases),
The dope vectors contained addresses; a descriptor does not. The
equivalent of a dope vector is a locator/descriptor, not a descriptor
in isolation.
