Thank you both for your input.

Keeping things simple organized, and pure is indeed necessary.

True, Xrefing doesn’t allow for Civil functionality. Just two or so persons in my office use Civil 3D to it’s fullest. The rest of us in the office, myself -the new guy- in particular, focus on 2D drafting, creating standardized layers and styles without modifying the base plans. It’s not a perfect system, but work flow is smooth with 2012.

2013 is a different story, though there’s enough talk on Autodesk forums that I assume they are following the talk and trying to fix things.
