Being an applications programmer, I can say that doing such a thing would prevent me from doing certain aspects of my job.
Which includes setting up or modifying personal command tables, non ISPF Clist's, REXX utilities, mainframe FTP, receiving notices issued by send commands, unpacking XMIT'd PDS libraries, etc... I'd want to have a serious talk to any manager that thought I shouldn't have access to TSO Ready Prompt. If they wouldn't change their minds about it, it would be time to find another Job. TSO Ready Prompt is too useful of a tool for any programmer (systems or application) to put up with that sort of foolish and uninformed decision.

I apologize for not giving a more accurate picture to begin with.
