It's bigger and slower.  PHP now has to parse 10k of code instead of 2.  
Plus editing the content in such a way seems unwieldy.  I find it far 
more direct to manage items by file name.

Whatever is common between the pages should get templated.  Then, there 
are two options:  1) have the template include the content, or 2) have the 
content include the templates.  The approach you want depends on what 
you're doing.
