It is documented. See point number 6 on the following page:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/hla-and-tf/1.6?topic=literals-summary-literal-rules
Given that literals are effectively automatically generated DC
statements, I think it is logical that the resolution uses the
environment at the point that the statements are assembled.
