And for older, slower devices, in particular those that only open one file at a time (and not the entire book), doesn't it make it much more of a pain just to open the book in the first place? I mean, to make a website analogy, it'd be like if you wanted to read one article on a news website, but in order to read that one you had to open the whole, entire site.
I do not keep everything in one file. I was saying about endnotes (footnotes in a pBook). And when I work on an ePub, I mostly use Notepad++ which allows me to load all the files in different tabs and I can do search/replace across tabs.
