In addition to every chapter, I have a separate file for the cover, TOC, title page, almost every photograph, occasionally a caption, the copyright / About the Author page, and Further Reading. This can be fifty "chapters." So what? It works.

Yep. I've found the same thing. I use as many files as it takes to achieve what I want.
I think a lot of people resist because of the whole "chapter" association/dogma. It's unfortunate that everyone took to calling them "chapter" files in the first place. Oh well.
