Try to assemble the following test program. Attempts to use AIALENTH as a duplication factor fail with 'ASMA080E Statement is unresolvable' while BIALENTH works just fine. Why?

AIADSECT DSECT ,
AIAVRS   DS    0CL512
         DS    32LQ
AIALENTH EQU   *-AIADSECT

BIADSECT DSECT ,
BIAVRS   DS    0CL512
         DS    32XL16
BIALENTH EQU   *-BIADSECT

TEST     CSECT
         DC    (AIALENTH)X'00'
         DC    (BIALENTH)X'00'
         DC    (AIALENTH)X'00'
         DC    (BIALENTH)X'00'
         END
