Macros such as IHAPSA, CVT, and IHAECVT are provided for a reason -- so that you don't need to hard-code offsets and in so doing make your code less readable and less maintainable. Why do you avoid them? z/OS macros themselves might hard-code offsets because we don't necessarily want to impose a requirement on the invoker that they include other macros. But if you're writing your own code, you should insist on imposing that requirement on yourself.
