Ahhh, but will your company *pay* IBM more $$ for z/OS if this functionality were provided?
I wasn't on the team that implemented this support, but I know that when new function gets implemented there must be a balance between what is possible, what was asked for, what doing it will cost, and what else must be done. I'm sure it is no different where you work.
Given the limited definition for conditional execution that was done 50 years ago, I think this support is a big step up.
