If I have a working TSO logon proc then I can allocate the libraries that ISPF needs. It's only if someone clobbers those that I would need to resort to TSO EDIT.
Have you been at DRs where you couldn't use ISPF from the floor system? -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

I've done DRs where this has actually occurred. Consider yourself fortunate.
