Why not, if they're cheaper than the constituents bought separately?

Some omnibuses I've split because I've already got other books in the series as individual books, and it doesn't look good to have a few clumped together in one file in between.

Some omnibuses are complete in themselves (Sherlock Holmes, for instance), and those I keep as omnibuses.

I don't think I've ever merged books into an omnibus before. It might be an instructive experience to do it if any books in my library require the treatment.

Psychologically, I like them separate, tbh. It feels a greater achievement to finish reading three books, instead of finishing one really long one.
