BTW, I've looked all over in my Mac2k6, and have not been able to
find Smart Explosion, of which you speak. What is it, and where is it?

In addition to Brad's and Robert's examples, I'll add the following
items which are much easier to deal with in an intermediate "parts"
score:
1) font and position of measure numbers
2) position and format of page numbers
3) music spacing
For me these are all different in the parts than they are in the
score, and it's a lot less work to do these once in the
"extraction" score than for each individual part. But by far the
biggest factors for me in favor of an intermediate score are the
TGTools Smart Explosion, and adding cues (I work mostly with large
orchestral scores).

In my earlier reply I neglected to mention this, which is a big
issue
for me as well.
The examples Brad and I have given for using an intermediate (and
temporary) copy of the score for part extraction seem to call
into question the value of linked scores and parts. In theory I
think linked scores and parts is a great idea. In practice I
worry that no implementation (esp. within a single annual cycle)
will be complete or flexible enough to be useful, other than as a
hack. If that is the case, I hate to see MM neglect other kinds
of enhancements that might be more immediately usable for a
linked parts feature of dubious usefulness.
