It was many years ago now, but if I remember the

model of IBM display station really did in the field
was thought to be the best method for keeping support
calls to a minimum.

That seems as likely an explanation as any. Very likely the matter of what KBDTYPE shows up in the *DEVD is just a side-effect, and what we're looking at is something from some obsolete terminal (obsolete as in "did 5252s really have two screens and keyboards looking in opposite directions??")

At no time did I touch the national/multinational setting.
