Using this flag when establishing a new session seems highly unusual. Most counterparties define a reset time. If you disconnect before the reset time and connect afterwards, you are using sequence number 1, and 141=Y is superfluous. If you are reconnecting intraday, in most cases 141=Y would be disastrous, as it would prevent recovery of missed messages while you were down.
