WHAT was IBM THINKING?!?!?, Re: QSYGETPH API

What in the <censored> was IBM thinking when they broke the <blasphemy> <obscenity> <vulgarity> QSYGETPH API in V5R3, such that it now requires <censored> parameters that didn't even <censored> exist when the API was first defined?
Have they somehow forgotten the basic <censored> concept of an API? Have they somehow forgotten that an API, by definition, is a fixed, documented system call that can be trusted not to change in any way that would break existing code? Or have they suddenly decided to act like <blasphemy> Microschlong, and tell all outside commercial product developers to <obscenity> <anatomically improbable bodily function>?
