It has nothing to do with USROPN; it has everything to do with the fact that
you are calling a procedure.  Procedures are considered a call level.  So
when the procedure ends, the override is gone (if the override specifies
OVRSCOPE(*CALLLVL) or if it specifies OVRSCOPE(*ACTGRPDFN) [the default] and
this is in the default activation group).  In this respect it is the same as
if you called a CL program with the override.

The easiest thing is to just stick with QCMDEXC.  Or you can use
OVRSCOPE(*JOB) so long as that won't mess up anything else.  Or you change
to not be running in the default activation group.
