I do not like to see unnecessary escape messages in my joblog. If I
monitor for them then I like to remove them. This way, when I scan the
joblog for Escape, I only see the ones of import.

So, instead of
ADDLIBLE ...
MONMSG CPF0000

I will do something like the following instead:
START: PGM
DCL &DATA *CHAR 30 /* Message data from RCVMSG */
DCL &KEYVAR *CHAR 4 /* Message key from RCVMSG */
DCL &MSGID *CHAR 7 /* Message id from RCVMSG */

ADDLIBLE TLACS
MONMSG CPF2103 EXEC(DO) /* Library is already in library list */
/* Remove message from cluttering joblog */
RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*NEXT) MSGKEY(*TOP) RMV(*YES) KEYVAR(&KEYVAR) +
MSGDTA(&DATA) MSGID(&MSGID)
EndDo

ENDPGM

This little test program works fine. If I run it repeatedly I will see:
call a01
116 - ADDLIBLE LIB(TLACS)
135 - RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*NEXT) MSGKEY(*TOP) RMV(*YES) KEYVAR(&KEYVAR)
MSGDTA(&DATA) MSGID(&MSGID)
- RETURN /* RETURN due to end of CL program */

and no escape message.

However, I have this logic buried in another program and I am still seeing
the escape message.

Message . . . . : 3100 - ADDLIBLE LIB(TLACS)
CPF2103-Library TLACS already exists in library list.
Message . . . . : 3400 - RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*NEXT) MSGKEY(*TOP) RMV(*YES)
KEYVAR(&KEYVAR) MSGDTA(&DATA) MSGID(&MSGID)

Other program's logic looks like:
...

/* +
| Start up BC400 +
*/
ADDLIBLE TLACS
MONMSG CPF2103 EXEC(DO) /* Library is already in library list */
/* Remove message from cluttering joblog */
RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*NEXT) MSGKEY(*TOP) RMV(*YES) KEYVAR(&KEYVAR) +
MSGDTA(&DATA) MSGID(&MSGID)
EndDo
TLACS/STRBC400
...
