This is related to the zoslib heuristic for untagged files. You can try setting export __UNTAGGED_READ_MODE=ASCII to force conversion of untagged files to ASCII. This setting will affect all untagged files and all tools linking to zoslib (which is probably 80% of the tools). If most/all of your untagged files contain 1047 content then this setting is probably preffered for you.

man zoslib for more details

Looks good.
Do you plan to configure vim to set __UNTAGGED_READ_MODE or is this an option for the user?
thanks

@IgorTodorovskiIBM this is a borderline bug I would say since vim gets confused pretty easily, but presumably this also belongs under zoslib and not vim? You ok if we open an issue in zoslib and then close this one?
