IWS Web service response - can I change the return tag to return_data or something else

Can I change the soap response from the IWS Web Service process.

Currently the response is like this example

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope";>
<soap:Body>
<ns2:msd100rResponse xmlns:ns2="http://webservice01.wsbeans.iseries/
">
<return>
<POUTDATA>
<length>518</length>
<string>{"messages":["success",1,""]} --- Omitted data
---</string>
</POUTDATA>
</return>
</ns2:msd100rResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

The POUTDATA is the output parameter defined in my program. I believe IBM
is generating the <return> tags ?

The consumer of this web service is using PHP and says they get an error
because of the <return> ... </return>
They say that "return" is a reserved PHP word. (I don't really understand
that as I would not expect it to be causing the issue)

But in deploying the web service through IWS I can see no way to change
this ?

This was the response from the eternal PHP programmer trying to consume
the web service

I am having issues with the response from the webservice as return is a
keyword in PHP. (https://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.keywords.php)
User error: "return" is an invalid render array key in
Drupal\Core\Render\Element::children() (line 97 of
/web/xnet/public_html/web/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Render/Element.php)

Is it possible to change this element?

Here is the PHP function the external client is using; (I believe the
issue is when they are calling get_object_vars but I am waiting on
confirmation of that)

function ids_userform_checkerp($userid){

$wsdl = '
http://10.100.0.218:10010/web/services/WebService01Service/WebService01?wsdl'
;
$header = new \SoapHeader('http://webservice01.wsbeans.iseries/',
'Header', array());
$soap = new \SoapClient($wsdl);
//$soap->__setSoapHeaders($header);
$length = 52 + strlen($userid);

// build request and send
$params[] = array('arg0'=> array(
'PFUNCTION' => '*USRDATA',
'PINDATA' => '<length>'. $length .'</length>
<string>{"token":"1111111111111111","request_user":"' . $userid .
'"}</string>'
));
$response = $soap->__soapCall('msd100r',$params);
$responseCode = get_object_vars($response);
\Drupal::messenger()->addMessage($responseCode);

return;
}

There are no problems with calling the soap service. The issue is with the
response, which is received though unable to access the data.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Don
