If that were the only issue then maybe. TSO also has built in code
that insists that say if you use the output command (not the only
command) that insists that the job name you are working on is your
userid plus 1 character. Eight character job names is fixed so now
you can't access your output. That is only one of the built in
restrictions, there are more.

Automatic Jobs submitted by ISPF have the same restriction. They use
your defined JCL (which as a max 7 character Jobname) and append an
extra character. Also, the ISPF view output command (3.8?) uses your
Jobname plus 1 character as it search/select criteria.
