In that case I'd have to check it physically (with a 'program v. JCL'
DCB with MACRF=(R/G)) ... and I don't have the time to do that. Thanks
anyway.

Perhaps you should.
but that is how things were in the days of MVS OS/VS SP1 (1985):
It was not how it worked in OS/360. I just looked it up in the JCL
manual on bitsavers. The sequence of completing a DCB is the
same regardless of whether the data set is opened for input,
output or I/O.
if things
have 'changed' since then, so be it.

When opening for input, the priority order is

I don't think so, and Using Data Sets seems to say otherwise.
Can you cite a reference?
