Well... sort of. It doesn't "inhibit" the mechanism of secondary
addressing, but that secondary space upon entry is going to be the
same as the primary upon entry. To that extent it's the same mode that
normal application programs run in.

I'm not sure. SASN=NEW effectively inhibits the access to the caller's
primary that would otherwise (i.e. with SASN=OLD) be available using
instructions that are architecturally defined to access the current
secondary. But it has nothing to say about whether you can access that
caller's primary using other means.

And of course you can change the current secondary, assuming ASN
authorization allows you to do so.
