I don’t really know what goes on under the covers.
Your IBM SE would be a better person to ask for the details.
I think of the Driver MCL as a "level set".
I suspect, each low level routine is updated and verified, which accounts for
the duration.

Jason,
We do that in our product (not selling you anything), and it is not easy.
some of the parameters are not displayed in the command and need deeper
investigation. In general, you do not compare syntax, but tokens. for

I didn't do much with zos 2.3, didn't create new DS in CAT's, etc.

Tracking changes (with a suitable tool) might be feasible. What you'll miss,
however, is changes to product defaults. No one specifies every possible value.
Sometimes the vendor changes a default or more often adds a new
