No, it is not catalog issue, including multilevel alias. I just created
alias named HLQ.A-L1
However first qualifier is special one because of RACF. You cannot
create RACF profile without creating group or user for HLQ. And both
GROUP and USER names cannot contain "-".
Of course one may consider uprotected datasets, but IMHO it has no
practical usage.

Would that be because of a Catalog issue? As in an Alias can't
contain "-"?

For dataset names the addition is "-". This character can be used

We tried using this for our PHX-BDT product. It worked great in the
second qualifier (e.g., SYS2.PHX-BDT.SJBDMAC), but not in the first.
Since we prefer to deliver product data sets with the product name
as the first qualifier, we settled on using PHXBDT instead...
