In a recent post, I saw:
    //TESTDIR  EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,PARM='GRAPHICS(CHAIN(SN))'

o Why is PARM='GRAPHICS(CHAIN(SN))' still a thing?

o Cui bono?

o In this 21st Century, why isn't the default the identity translation?

o If it needs to ba thing, why doesn't every utility support it?

o If it's generally needed, why isn't it an option on DD SYSOUT?

(I was dismayed the first time I used IDCAMS and my comments vanished.)
