Yeah. Also LARL only works for even addresses. What happens (too lazy to
test) if I code LARL R1,=X'012345' and the literal would fall on an odd
address?
Use ORG appropriately.
Is the assembler smart enough to bump it to an even

Doesn't that allow twice the range?

Adcons cannot refer to relocatable expressions.

Sure they can! You most basic A(label) is typically a reference to a
relocatable expression.
Adcons can't refer to symbols in DSECTs because they don't have an address.
Where are they? Wherever you want them to be. Wherever their register points.

Well, macros were omnipresent by the 1960s. When did FAP come along?

PL/I is also character stream oriented, yet PL/I macros make perfect sense. The
lack of real macros in C clearly derives from the limited memory on the
original DEC platforms.

I know adcons are relocatable in the sense that they are resolved to a
virtual storage address when the load module is loaded and executed; I was
