Help text on the ls subcommand say it gives only a list of the file names - it does mention dir, which gives more information, somewhat like that which ls gives in QSH and otherwhere.

It's perhaps an unfortunate coincidence that ls is both an FTP subcommand and a command line in Linux, etc.

I think it's fair to say that IBM are following the crowd with FTP - both ls and dir behave the same in a Win 10 Powershell window.

I've had some of the same experience, not being sure which [sub]command to use in different environments.

Cheers

What makes me think it would? Well, any of the standard sites or man
pages one would research to find the options on the ls command show
various options. That is what makes me think so.
