Reroute and transfer jobs are both really expensive commands, akin to starting a new job. Both will cause the subsystem to call routing program, rebuild the PAG etc. I do use them occasionally but in specific circumstances mainly for work management. Needing to do either in a job stream implies less than optimal applications and poor technique. This reminds me of part of the job description of the system administrator: “ A developers job is to protect the system from the user. The system administrator’s job is to protect the system from the developers. “ Restricting the use of those two commands falls into the second half of that description.
