If you want long names on programs then do some research on service

What if this existed?

CRTBNDRPG PGM(MYPGM) LONGNAME(MYLONGPROGRAMNAME) .....

and at some point you just like:

CALL LONGPGMN(MYLONGPROGRAMNAME)

And this would work for new applications. Why not?

Why would an expansion in system object names cause headaches?
It would break a great deal of software that uses record-level access.

Every single system API that deals with objects in the QSYS.LIB file
system assumes that a fully qualified object name in that file system
consists of a 10-character library name, a 10-character object name, a
10-character member name, for database files, and a 10-character object
type, for APIs that deal with multiple object types.

The same is true for CL commands.
