I covered that.

It isn’t necessary, or even desirable.

One can achieve the desired result without doing so.

Keeping everything in one book retains the ability for varied reporting.

Once transactions are archived, reporting becomes limited with respect to 
historical transactions. (and with it, analysis of said transactions, to some 
degree)

The most versatility is retained by keeping all years in one book.

Segregating by date, starts to introduce limitations.
