Since you expressly left out
"or indirectly through application or middleware software"

To say that I "expressly left out" doesn't make sense, logically. I either
expressed it , or left it out. But not both. I covered that in a previous
post.

Moreover, the statement "or indirectly through application or middleware
software" doesn't support your argument. It supports mine, that IBM i
credentials, exchanged with the operating system, whether directly or
indirectly through applications or middleware, is the definition of "a
user", for purposes of user entitlements.

which would say things like

WEBUSER WEBPASSWORD IBMIUSER
PETE PUMA QUSER
RALPH MALPH QUSER
SUPER MAN QSYSOPR
BAT GIRL QSYSOPR

I don't know what you mean by that. It's ambiguous.

Remember that IBM document that you referenced? Did you miss the part
surrounding the following quote?

"To provide a more accurate usage count, IBM-supplied system profiles are
excluded from the usage count."
