Yeah, problem is, some of the things I would consider as basic to a rework effort would be using procedures ... but programs that are compiled with '*DFTACTGRP' can't use procedures. Converting a program to use a non-default activation group is trivial, but it would need to be heavily tested. This is where the justification problems come in.
