I grant you that M stands for Modification and that some PTF's are greatly 
exceeding 1MB but do you consider these consequential. Sorry for thinking 
maintenance when manuals say installation and maintenance but only use the 
acronym. As for PTF's far greater than 1MB, the physical size is actually 
inconsequential. More to the point is that very rately bundles more than 1 
problem into a PTF unless things have changed. I haven't seen IBM PTF's in many 
years.
Tell us what you disagree with that is of actual consequences. I doubt that 
years from now, people will bother looking at these postings.
