I do not have any problem with my *ist D overexposing. The reason is because I use center-weighted averaging, which gives me consistently good exposures. Before that I used center-weighted averaging for slide film on my PZ-1p bodies. After a while I stopped bracketing with slide film because it was not necessary.
I think program metering was developed so that people could see facial details in underexposed images of backlit relatives.
