Pros and Cons of multiple Drawings from one source

Hi all,

I have multiple configurations of an assembly and want to create two to three seperate drawings from it. I want the multiple configurations in one assembly in order to keep the designs similar. I am the only one so far at my company, but don't want to create a configuration nightmare for the future. Pros and Cons? I have done a little reasearch and the Cons seem to be slanted towards sloppy design work and poor use of the tool. The tool is suppose to be parametric and when you break away configurations to seperate them it seems to me that you are not using the tool correctly. Thoughts?
