Just curious as to others experience,

Of RPG trigger programs I've written and/or looked at most (all?) were
designed to support multiple trigger events and/or times.

It depends.

In some cases, I've written a separate delete trigger for a file that uses a trigger for both add and update.

And in another notable case, I've written a script-driven trigger program (incorporating a recursive descent parser, fed by an ILE C scanner) that can handle all three operations on as many as 30 or more different files, no two with the same record format. And it actually DOESN'T cause much of a performance hit, even on the relatively anemic 400s we use around here.
