User-written Command Processors can execute in either 24-bit or 31-bit
addressing mode provided they follow the restrictions involved in invoking
programs that have 24-bit dependencies. When assigned the AMODE=31
attribute, they can be loaded above 16 MB in virtual storage (RMODE=ANY),
and passed input that resides above 16 MB. ​

I have a theory that it's impossible to prove anything, but I can't prove
it.
