For non-system LX, reusable=yes is always better. I agree with Rob that you might save the sequence number in the same place that you save the LX for later use (or the PC number itself that you derive from the LX).
For system LX, reusable=yes is not needed if you expect to restart and re-connect. If you're a 1-time thing, then reusable=yes is good. For a non-reusable LX, a "big LX" (i.e., using the non-default LXSIZE) is always recommended. You get that automatically if the LX is reusable=yes.
