As for writing software, you basically have no choice but to use tooling IBM has support for.
Is that really the case now? Even back in the 1980s, other software publishers made great tools and compilers for OS/MVS mainframes. Boole and Babbage's Resolve did a lot of cool stuff, including giving you the mainframe equivalent of "su" right down to the TSO terminal level. And we didn't even use IBM compilers; Capex had optimized compilers with great system dump formatting.
