I think you get the just of what I was saying, that technique, or method of keeping everything on the sysres (for some), trying not to put my foot in my mouth again, moved forward with the advent of OpenMVS. the sysprog I replaced had everything on the sysres, so cloning or maintain gwas more difficult than needed to be IMO.
