One reasons not to use *NEW for all programs is that ending a program
with LR off (so files stay open etc) doesn't work with a *NEW program.

The best rule-of-thumb scheme I've seen for activation groups is to have
the first program in an application be *NEW and all the other programs
and service programs be *CALLER.  This way your application always
starts fresh and ends clean, overrides and commitment control work the
way you expect, and subprograms can still stay active across calls if
necessary.
