However, it is interesting to note that more and
more people are switching to bound calls (i.e. CALLP) which are the same
as C's function calls.

I have to call ya on that one.   All we had since 1978 was a Dynamic Call
(passing parameters by reference)
When we Got ILE,  We had the best of both worlds.  We now do Bound Calls
with Pass By Value like C does,
BUT those programs should never have been dynamic.  and the dynamic call is
still Exactly what you want in some applications.  (The ones where the
chance of calling is very small like once in 5000 runs you will call it.)

Business rule exceptions Like;
If the customer is this type and and...... call this program to handle
it....

Dynamic is probably exactly what you want.
