The PDS gotchas described in this thread have existed since Christ was a
cowboy. Yes, something should have been done about it since the first cha was
got. However, given that that eventuality never came to pass, what amazes me
most is that it's still such a hot topic fifty years later!

I can see an obvious need to avoid corruption of the directory. Yet there
is (or was) valid code (using BLKSIZE=256 from memory) to access a PDS
directly. And wasn't IEBGENER with a dummy SYSUT1 used to repair the
DSORG=PO of a PDS damaged in this way? So I think it would be difficult to
make sens

And the world would be better for it. Think of all the resource spent
in data centers by programmers recovering
Doh! That wouldn't work for extending the directory!

They should be using DSORG=DA and OPENing for UPDATE.
