As the end user, I care little about the technical details of the blockage; only
that the facility is unavailable.

And I might reverse the analysis and fault ISPF for relying on an inadequate
service.  An alternative approach might be to liberate ISPF from dependency
on TSO.  That might politically be the more practical approach, given that
TSO appears to be functionally stabilized while ISPF is actively maintained
and enhanced.

I can easily start multiple UNIX System Services sessions until I grow tired,
with no need for administrative gyrations such as John M. discusses.  Why
shouldn't TSO/ISPF be raised to that level of quality?
