Clearly, but why prohibit cataloguing 'FOO.BAR'?
The DISP requests cataloging, but the quotes specify not to
catalog (by convention). As the request is self-contradictory,
the system takes the path of least resistance - let the job run,
and don't do anything to the catalog. Might as well ask why data
set names used on PROCs have to be quoted.
