Hi Ben,
We have been using COBOL 6.2 for our z/OS code base since late 2017 and have utilised the OPT(2) CA Gen 8.6 default HE/IT setting without issue - though it remains important to ensure, per Lynn's comments, that you are running latest IBM APARs and maintenance for the compiler and the associated LE environmental/runtime support.
Hope this helps.
Kindest Regards
