I would use special part extraction *if* and only if it would retain the original score layout when you turned it off. As it is, it doesn't get you much of anything, in my opinion -- none of the parts *I* create need any less tweaking with special part extraction than they do with regular part extraction, because I'm not working with music where parts with exactly the same number of measures in every system in all parts would be tolerated. -- David W.
