Since SETLL doesn't actually perform an I/O, I would guess that it is quite

 Uh, you *are* wrong on this one.  Just because the RPG input buffer
doesn't  get populated doesn't mean that the I/O routines don't run.  There
is an index (or RRN) seek, error flags/indicators are set, the file cursor
is positioned, etc.
