Using ods2 results in files getting a version limit of "1" although DIR/FULL shows 0 #12

I used the ods2 command procedure:

SET NOERROR_EXIT
SET VERIFY
INIT/CREATE/MEDIUM_TYPE=RK07/LOG MTREK.RK7 MTREK
SHOW VOL
CREATE/DIRECTORY/LOG [MTREK]
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .for [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .com [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .map [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .rat [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .rno [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .txt [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/ASCII .doc [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/BINARY .obj [MTREK].*
COPY /TO_FILES-11/BINARY/record_format=fixed=512 .exe [MTREK].*
SET DEFAULT [MTREK]
DIR /DATE/SIZE
DISMOUNT A:

to put the files obtained from https://www.digiater.nl/openvms/decus/vax82a/mtrek/ on an RK07 ods2 image file.

When I edited some of the .com files on the VAX, I noticed that after saving I still had one version of the edited file only.

DIR/FULL shows "No version limit" falsely.
A workaround is: SET FILE/VERSION=0 .;*
