"Allocation" is dismayingly ambiguous.  But I assume you mean
allocation as in DISP=NEW ratner than allocation as in DISP=OLD.

Data Set Utility tells me:
 Data Set Name . : User.LOADE
 Specified data set has zero block size.

 The data set allocated contains inconsistent attributes as indicated by the
 message displayed above. Prior to allocating a managed data set, ISPF cannot
 always determine if the attributes are inconsistent. The data class used when
 allocating the data set may contain inconsistent attributes, or the attributes
 you specified on the allocation panel may conflict with those defined in the
 data class. This panel gives you the opportunity to delete this data set. If
 you keep the data set, other ISPF functions, such as edit, move, or copy, may
 not be able to use the data set.

But I keep it.  Then Data Set List says:

and Move/Copy Utility says:
