To be fair to our boy Rob, I don't think he's actually advocating using two
LXs. He is just pointing out that the scheme you're proposing would *need*
two. That's the main reason that almost nobody uses non-system LXs. You
need a PC service already connected to a system LX in order to connect the
non-system LX to each client address space. And since you would by
definition already have a system LX, the non-system LXs would be
superfluous.

One could argue there are benefits in using non-system LXs but I don't know
of anybody that does that. Most long-lived vendor code just gives the
server space an AX of 1 and uses a single system LX and pc entry table. No
muss, no fuss. That's why IBM ended up having to invent that ASN and LX
reuse feature... (topic for another day)
