A couple of points to make: 1) The “up to 70%” makes 70% a target, not a guarantee.
2) Only certain python libraries are zIIP eligible. Think about the case where someone wraps their COBOL program in just enough C to make a python module. Then – if we didn’t have this specific list – that COBOL program would’ve been zIIP eligible. Not something IBM intends. The above are observations as a field guy who sometimes lectures on zIIP and who has talked to the relevant people about the “up to 70%” point.
