In my world, you would just change one file named something like
site-style.tcl that just defines procs which return HTML chunks
that are used to build the overall site presentation.  What I thought
was being said was some pairing of ".adp and .tcl" meaning for each
"page" there would be an .adp file AND a .tcl file that gets sourced
when the .adp is requested -- yikes.

If you're saying have procs defined in your server's tcl lib dir that
get loaded at start-up and then call those procs from ADP pages, yes,
that's *definitely* the way to go.
