Well, first off... I'm embarrassed to realize I didn't even catch the subject of Joe's original email. Duh, he said *INZSR <head slap>.
Secondly... I know you're a fan but... Heck no!
I will tell you that when I learned RPG over 30 years ago, my instructor went over the cycle, had us write a program or two using it, and then said "you need to know about it as it is part of the language" but he would never accept a cycle program in production in his shop - where six of us from the class later got hired.
Programs doing magic stuff without me telling it to give me the willies.

The idea of an auto-invoke makes me think of *INZSR which I detest.
"Magic" routines running on their own? No thanks.
Just a wild guess, but I would imagine you don't "ride The Cycle" very much.
