Bad ACS routuines?

<snip>
In order to copy a load module library to a progam object library I used ISPF 
Data Set Utility to allocate the new library with DSNTYPE=LIBRARY.  Believing 
that "SDB knows best," I left BLKSIZE blank.  ISPF warned me.  I told it, 
"Trust me."  I went to Move/Copy Utility and tried the copy.  It failed: can't 
deal with BLKSIZE=0.
Curious, I deleted and re-created with BLKSIZE=1(!?) and retried the copy.  
Succeeded, and as a side effect set BLKSIZE to 4096.

Is there any rationale to this logic, that BLKSIZE=0, which is supposed to 
defer the choice to SDB, fails, while the absurd BLKSIZE=1 succeeds and SDB 
operates?
