I know that in the past, they were handy for when you dropped your deck of physical cards. And if guess that they can still be handy if you distribute source modifications in a format suitable for processing by IEBUPDTE, like
IBM does at times.

But I'm having trouble figuring out why I would want to do this with my own code. The reason I'm even considering stopping is because I really prefer
to keep my HLASM code in a UNIX directory rather than a PDS.

Are they not useful when you have macro calls in the code?
