If a program already exists, the locations of all the functions it needs to call are already determined. If some new function is added to one of the service programs it is bound to, it will have no effect on the program.

If a function is coded locally in a module, any calls to the function within the module will call the local procedure. So even if you rebind the program, it won't even notice that some of the local functions are also in the service program.

You can see this by using DSPMOD DETAIL(*IMPORT). That shows a list of all the procedures that the binder will look for when it creates your program. The procedures that are local to the module won't be listed there so even if they are in one of the available service programs, the binder won't be looking for them.
