Forward compatibility with BMP, which does require you returning the PK. If
you decide to switch from CMP to BMP, you don't have to modify your
interface!

Subject: ejbCreate() prototype
Section 9.4.2 of EJB 1.1 spec (Entity beans with CMP) :
The ejbCreate(...) methods must be defined to return the primary key
class type. The implementation of the ejbCreate(...) methods should be
coded to return a null. The returned value is ignored by the
Container.
My question : If the container ignores the return value, why does the method
prototype require a return type?
TIA.
