Extremely inefficient, error-prone and irritating. Again: CATs are
about automating reetitive things.
How would you expect people to know which mail contains which (version
of) the file? How would you expect people to know which file (out of
several dozen or more) to look at to find something? How would you
expect people to remember the names of the snippets? Etc., etc., etc.
Best,
