burst has been in the SUBMIT.CLD going as far back as 1992

$ cms fetch submit.cld/gen=1 ""
%CMS-S-FETCHED, generation 1 of element VMS$:[CLD.CMS]SUBMIT.CLD fetched
$ search submit.cld burst
        qualifier burst,        value(type=print_bft),placement=positional
                                or copies or characteristics or burst)
$ cms show gen submit.cld/gen=1

Element generations in CMS Library VMS$:[CLD.CMS]

SUBMIT.CLD    1      29-MAR-1992 01:39:58 MASTERPACK "EVMS Masterpack rebuild #2: previously created by user(s) MASTERPACK as generation 1 "
