The only thing I still cannot do is to convince my students the z/OS<->PC data exchange is easy and well tooled.

It will never be easy due to complications from EBCDIC and record structure. Even IBM frequently gets it wrong.

There are new tools, e.g. I have been experimenting with Zowe CLI. It's worth trying for file transfer and can create new datasets, PDS etc. It only requires z/OSMF on the mainframe, i.e. nothing to install there - only configuration.
