I believe that the grammar is corrrect, but the duplication is a typo. Yes, I
meant to include z/OS. I did not know whther OCO applied to z/TPF.
The {{dubious}} template was at the end of a string of footnotes, so I may have
misinterpreted its scope.
The logic manuals that I cited are not for z/foo, but for their S/360
antecedents; the OCO comment was only there to clarify why I didn't cite
current manuals.

Is that editor actually challenging you on your use of commas? :-) And did you
mean to repeat z/VM? I assume you meant z/OS.
If this statement or similar is so important here, what similar statement can
you make that you can back up with an acceptable source? Sometimes if you find
another way to write something it’ll be fine. Perhaps you could write something
like this:
“IBM publicly distributed ‘logic manuals’ that describe ancestors of today’s
z/VM, z/VSE, and z/OS operating systems.”
Then you link to those three logic manuals in your reference.
Also, z/TPF?
