"Why?" isn't always the right question.

o Perhaps he isn't in an ISPF context?

o Perhaps, like me, he learned EXECIO under CMS, and is
  staying in a familiar environment?

o There has been much discussion in the TSO-REXX which you
  recommend of the (actually rather small) performance benefit
  of using as few system calls as possible.  Does ISPF LMPUT
  allow writing an entire stem in a single call, as EXECIO
  does?
