I agree with most of the sentiments expressed here. But that ship has sailed. And it is far from true that every operating system provides support for every hardware facility. Back when TRAP2 and TRAP4 were introduced (about 25 years ago), OS/390 development (it was pre-z/OS) was not even

Traditionally, the business case would have been that a debugging facility like this led to increased ability to exploit the platform, thus leading to more usage and more sales. Whether that still applies-whether IBM is interested in that for IBM zSystems-is unclear. With cloud, cloud, and more
