​Why do you think that you're missing anything? IEBCOPY does use the
PS/VS/27936 attributes, which override any other values. What XMIT does is
take that output and "encode" it into "card images" (FB/80). The RECEIVE
command reconstructs the IEBCOPY formatting and then uses IEBCOPY
internally to restore a PDS.​
