Only time I've used the ossia tool was to include one of those "range" measures above a vocal song.
One thing people seem to have difficulty with when they start out with Finale is that you don't work on the "finished" layout from the start. You need to enter notes, as many staves as are needed, THEN go back and adjust things and optimize out staves you don't need.
There's a logic to working in a notation prgramme like Finale. It's not always easy to get your mind wrapped around, but eventually, you get the hang of it.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
