No argument from me on that point.

One limitation of that, is that it doesn't also support any pre/post
commands to prepare the compile environment, such as overrides or
special library list requirements, etc.  I like being able to simply
put a PDM option in front of any member (or set of members via
FNDSTRPDM) and know it will correctly establish the environment and
recompile the member(s).

It also lets me move source from a development machine to production
and compile without having to set/change the parms I want on that
machine once first.

But your method has virtues too, and anything is better than doing it
all manually.
