7. Modularity and reusability
Modularization eliminates the need to copy and paste recurring information.
The module lifecycle (development, validity) is easier to trace.
Consuming standard content frees up time to focus on what's specific.
In mechanical engineering or electronics, it's cheaper to assemble standard (i.e., existing) components than to develop new ones. This make-or-buy configuration management principle also applies to structured writing. Reuse is often synonymous with copy and paste: duplication is a quick and easy way to reuse content.
