I wanted to speak to my particular situation with 5733OPS difficulties. I
did a SAVLICPGM/RSTLICPGM to get 5733OPS onto two machines. I was told
this could work but I probably missed a step. Once I installed 5733OPS
from an image catalog everything started working fine. With that said, I
am not a fan of PTFs because it's all or nothing. I need to be able to
install PTFs into a temporary location on the same machine without
disrupting existing work. I need to be able to do this without an IPL.

So are you saying you want to patch the operating system for some users, or some jobs, but not for others on the same machine? I don't know of any architecture that lets you do that. Even for applications, that is not possible except where you can install them in parallel outside the normal update process. You can install PTFs into a temporary location (or install them temporarily), and then remove them individually if some don't work out. And many PTFs (except the microcode ones) can be installed without an IPL.
