Ooh, ooh, ooh! I got this! Fewer files is a HUGE time saver! You can enter all the cues with copy and paste (or the plugin, which I find buggy) without pasting between documents, you can change the font sizes for tempi and rehearsal letters ONCE (or anything else ONCE) and have it apply to all parts at once, if you find something colliding in all parts you move it ONCE and it is solved everywhere, and you can take advantage of JW Copy Part Layout to regularize the page layout. Later edits, too, have to be done twice (once in the score file, once in the part file) but in extracted parts you have to make edits in ALL files, which can be maddening.
