The only customers I've seen that leave it as that do it simply because they don't know they're supposed to change it.

In US perhaps, I'm working with a few customers in Sweden that was communicating with peers close to when the smoke signal was invented.
They had to create translation tables by hand for various peers and have not touched QCCSID since. Bad things *will* happen.

Best regards

Stefan
