As I recall, this dates back to the beginnings of TSO under MVT. As I recall the story, the original (perhaps unreleased) version of TSO did allow multiple signons to a single id. But there was some sort of problem having to do with how to CANCEL a given session, or how to SEND a message to a

IBM in its infinite design of TSO was a small (but maybe important item). When you logoff TSO updates sys1.uads with the additional information (like CPU time used). Sharing uads might (probably?) corrupt the field. Now the question is does it do the same with RACF (ie no uads) I do not know
