So if many decades ago, IBM would have asked me (LOL), I would have
suggested an option like READONLY, RO, PROTECTED, or something along those
lines to cause a program to be loaded in protected storage.
The linkage editor started out with a "read only" option, namely
REFR (refreshable). But it was not honored by the early loaders,
that treated it as interchangeable with RENT.
