I agree completely for the reading case. But if I have a file open for writing
and try to write 8 bytes into a 4-byte record, shouldn't we jump to the ERR=
label? Unfortunately there is no support for EOR= in WRITE statements.
This feels a bit like an inconsistency in the standard.

Yes, I think I'll suggest this to the Starlink people.
