I'm not sure this was a question or a statement but yes, I use
SYS1.STCJOBS and place jobcards for STC's I want to add, accounting info
or change the msgclass or any other valid jobcard parms.
I learn something almost daily, I didn't know about &SYSJOBNM, good to know

You can now put a JOB statement in an STC PROC?!

Well, I've only used the new &SYSJOBNM for batch jobs, as the old &JOBNAME
seems to work well for STCs. However! I found (in MVS System Commands)
the following description of the rabbit hole that is names of STCs:
The job name for a given started task can be assigned based on a variety of
inputs. These inputs are examined in the following order, so that if item
#1 is not specified, item #2 is used. If neither #1 nor #2 is specified,
then #3 is used, and so on.
1. The job name specified in the JOBNAME= parameter of the START
command
or
The identifier specified on the START command.
2. The job name specified on the JOB JCL statement within the member.
3. The device number specified on the START command, or the device
number associated with the device type specified on the START command
or
The device number associated with the device type specified on the
START command.
4. The device number associated with the IEFRDER DD statement within
the member.
5. The member name.
IBM® recommends that you use the JOBNAME parameter rather than an
identifier. If you use the JOBNAME parameter, SMF records, messages, and
automated programs can reflect or react to job status; identifiers can
only
be viewed at a console.
Note: JOBNAME and identifier are mutually exclusive; you cannot specify
both parameters on the START command.
Nothin's simple. It would be interesting to see how all the options affect
both variables.

S OMPROUTE.OMP4 &SYSJOBNM gives OMROUTE
S OMPROUTE,JOBNAME=OMP4 gives OMP4
I can live with this

Thank you .. I'll raise some doc comments, as it is not well

If I start OMPROUTE.OMP1, or issue Start OMPROUTE,JOBNAME=OMP1, can
I
get
the
OMP1 as a JCL symbol so I can use it to pick up different
configuration
members?
I can crawl around the control blocks and create a symbol - but
want a
supported solution.
If I use &JOBNAME I get JES2.
