I fear that while you're right, in the end it may not make a large difference.  
Specifically, in our world, free or low up front cost often seems to trump most 
other considerations, including TCO over expected system lifetime.

As a result, I kind of expect to see linux/KVM hypervisor installations on Z 
spreading in a few years.  At least, if the idea of Z series virtualization 
doesn't get prematurely killed by commodity intel hardware virtualization 
first. :-(
