Me neither. I certainly would not mind trying it out, though. It's
just not something I can download and try on my own, as far as I can
tell. (I'm not the keeper of the ESS keys and whatnot.) […]
Ah but you CAN try it out on your own!!

It's right there, download the base package!! You do not need your ESS
access only an IBM ID.
Seems only a /registered IBM ID/ is capable to access the download;
that is a step beyond the classic IBM ID, with which I was already
logged-in when I visited that link -- I was directed to register depite
clearly being logged-in. Not having a /company/, only lies to their
registration software allowed continuing the upgrade to the the ID.
And seems, indeed, merely "try it"; as apparently, the download
license\terms reveal the typical 70-day trial\"Evaluation License".
And then come to find that my metered bandwidth *and* 70 days were
both _wasted_ on that download; the net, summed up in the following
message when I clicked on the instructed file: "You can't open the
application IBM i Access Client Solutions.app because it is not
supported on this type of Mac." Nothing in the readme or anything else
I saw suggested any pre-requisite.? Certainly not very useful to know
that the software "runs on most operating systems that support Java,
including … Mac", but no implication that my Mac would be excluded :-(
