Of course you don't have to use SMPC if you don't want to use it ! But there is an advantage in using SMPC if you have a lot of conversations with loosly coupled components. 98% of the time I'm using a SMPC and the last 2% of the time I'm using a persistence context (@PersistenceContext) - of course together with Seam-managed transactions.
