This would be a moot point if there wasn't at least one sentence about it in the TSO documentation.

Not a whole sentence, but a half sentence that says, "... and specify that SYSIN and
SYSPRINT are to be directed to the user's terminal." Then there is an example TSO
logon proc with those in it.
If not for that I would think that it might just be some sort of convention to
allocate SYSIN to terminal.
SYSIN and SYSPRINT are not used by TSO. I have never seen them coded in
a TSO logon procedure. However, doing so harms nothing.
