Yes, but you can APPLY by SOURCEID(RSU*).

CONTENT(RECOMMENDED)?
Indeed. I had a somewhat similar problem with CONTENT(RECOMMENDED) for
a brand-new CSI that had nothing but the product FMID in it.
CONTENT(RECOMMENDED) retrieved nothing, with a message along the lines
of "no sysmods satisfied filter criteria". A subsequent RECEIVE ORDER
... CONTENT(ALL) got about 50 PTFs, ALL of which had an RSU
SOURCEID.....
I agree with what appears to be your underlying premise: If an option
is offered, it ought to work "always".
