What you are saying at the top part is true.

However i don't believe the doco is saying use SMPC all the time.

Take a look at the first paragraph of the section. It basically refers to if 
you are using the component outside of a Java EE5 environment or if you have 
many loosly coupled components. Which as long as they are all SB the 
PersisetnceCOntext should transfer. However the doco is 100% right if you are 
going to have a mix of SB and POJOS .... then yeah doing the EntityManager 
injection is the only way to go.

So you can stick with the @PersistenceContext in most situations. Its going to 
be a situation where you are wanting to transact against non-EJB components you 
will want to use the @IN EntityManger. 

Of course that being said i am not sure the harm it would cause using the @In 
EntityManager more often.
