No, you are not missing anything.

This is also true.

People have different ways of handling parts. Some people do use Special Part Extraction; I find it totally useless. So your mileage may vary.
Personally, I create extracted parts files, and then I go through each part to neaten things up, make sure page turns are in the right place, etc. When I need to correct a mistake, I change it both in the source score and in the part. If I have to make large-scale changes to the score, I re-extract the parts.
