Is this worthy of an RFC or am I missing something?

.ieaa400/iea3a4_STORAGE_OBTAIN.htm says

,SP=subpool number
Specifies the subpool number for the storage. (See z/OS MVS Programming:
Authorized Assembler Services Guide for a list of valid subpools.) If you
specify a register, the subpool number must be in bits 24-31 of the register
...

And

,KEY=key-number
Indicates the storage key of the storage to be obtained. The valid storage
keys are 0 - 15. If you pass the storage key in a register, it must be in
bits 56-59 in that register. ...

Isn't that bit numbering inconsistent? If the key is described as being in
bits 56-59, then the subpool should be described as being in bits 60-63,
right?

ITYM bits 56-63. There are 256 subpools.
