I am not sure about previous explanation, however before that all explanations are valid.
One thing should be clear in our mind that COMP usage is good but it can not be displayed simply, it will store in binary format, so we need to convert it in to ZD, if displaying in SYSOUT or writing to a file.
Please let me know if I am wrong.
Thanks
