Agreed.  And a car is a turn-key product like a toaster or a VCR.  If I work
in a business that makes custom cars out of stock vehicles it is not
reasonable to have the original factory supply me (for free) with all of the
custom tools I need.

For a turn-key system (say JDE software and iSeries hardware sold together
by a BP) you don't (in theory!) need an editor or compiler.  I believe the
inclusion of CRTCLCMD in the base OS was a decision based on bundling CL as
an integrated part of CPF.
