You want the compiler to check for a length of four if the loop limit is
999? And for a length of 3 if the loop limit is 99, etc? And if the loop is For
x = 1 to 997 by 2? The length of 3 is ok, but not if it is x = 1 to 997 by 3.
Or x = 999 to 999999 by 7, check for a variable size of 6, but if it is x =
1 to 999998 by 1 then 6 is ok? I don't think there is a compiler in the world
that is going to check for all the possibilities.

Well, as others have pointed out IBM won't change it now because people
may actually be counting on that.
Bet that makes determining when it exited the loop fun - for example
determining if they used LEAVE or not. And when they actually exited.
