True, tags are not global within a book. But if you keep a separate template document with your tag definitions, you can import the definitions to all files in your book in one operation. With a little bit of discipline in the way you work, this will ensure consistent formatting throughout the book.

As Art said, multiple smaller files are easier to manage.
That's a polite way of saying that your losses will be smaller when (not if) Framemaker crashes...
