but looking at the deluxe transitive vampire or grammar for smart people, they certainly don't reproduce everything (from CMoS) and yet they're both pretty much stand-alone.
i'd say: describe everything that's Unique, and then just hit the major things and refer to CMoS for the lesser-used stuff that's the same. that way, most of the time folks can just use the one book.
