And why would you expect an application programmer writing in COBOL to even
know that manual exists? Why should he/she even know it's possible for
the programs to be invoked by anything other than EXEC PGM=... )where a
100-byte parm limit has existed forever)?
And why do you expect that COBOL programmer is even aware of the
100-byte JCL limitation? The JCL Reference is a big manual
