1. z/OSMF supports REST API - so I can call it from off platform
automation - and use the same techniques for all platforms they support
2. ISPF dialogs and saving state and workflow management etc have some
limitations. z/OSMF fixes some of these
3. We've gone away from Silos, and now have people managing all the
platforms. The old way needed a dedicated team who knew the Silo
4. One day all us old codgers wont be around; they have to worry about
succession planning.
