QUALITY is not a "library" it is a directory on my i. QSYS.LIB is both a
library and a directory. Do this

WRKLNK '/*'

See all that stuff? Now, if you scroll down to /QSYS.LIB the contents of
that is everything you see in the library QSYS on your system. So, yes,
it's technically feasible to do
WRKLNK '/QSYS.LIB/MYLIB.LIB/MYFILE.FILE/MYMBR.MBR'
It's called the "Integrated File System" or IFS for short. EVERYTHING is
in the IFS. Some people refer to only stuff outside of /QSYS.LIB as the
IFS. I prefer to lump all that into "stream files". Why that? Well, if
you look into something other than /QSYS.LIB with WRKLNK you will see they
are "generally" either STMF for stream files, or DIR for directories.

So in summary, DSPOBJD is limited to just the stuff you see in
WRKLNK '/QSYS.LIB/*'
There's a whole world outside of your neighborhood block.

Hence: This is not an AS/400, this is a system i.
