I would make the case _/for/_ IWs in an RPG environment.
Reason 1 is that experienced RPG programmers will be up to speed and
serving/consuming json data in days, not weeks. Existing shops with
existing staff will not go through the angst of malformed files, missing
steps, and testing that isn't thorough.
Reason 2 is that experienced PHP, node, and Python hires can be brought
in and be useful from Day 4 and not be forced to understand RPG before
pulling their full weight.
Reason 3 is that it helps build the wall between sensitive data and a
world-that-doesn't-need-to-know-the -details.

REST for sure. And personally I would not use IWS for a multitude of reasons. I love it for proof of concept stuff but I'd rather "roll my own" using PHP, node, Python or RPG.
