And to keep this on topic: I've never _ever_ used OPNQRYF.  Whenever I see 
it, I go all eeeewwwww.

I take it that you never had a project assigned to you with a requirement for a 
compound key consisting of parts in different (i.e., JOINed) files.

There have been a number of times when OPNQRYF was a perfect fit for me. 
Especially when nothing else (short of significant rewrites without 
authorization/approval) would work.
