I do not understand subprocedures all that well, but I do know that to use a
%bif I only need to use it.  I don't have to bind, or compile my programs in
any special way.  For someone on RPGIII, using %bif() is easy to learn. 
Using his/her first subprocedure will not be an easy task. 
 
At  least it wasn't for me.

I read that article.  Some good points, some interesting concepts.
Technically I do think IBM allows us to create our own bifs - they're
called subprocedures.  Maybe you can't put a percent sign in front of your
own.  Then again, if it was required it might drive some people nuts like
having to put a semicolon at the end of a free format rpg statement seems
to send some people into an epileptic fit.
