Also it is easier to keep more starter in a big jar without the need

Yeah, it's a little bit easier. I used to do it this way and have had far
more consistent results since I've switched to growing a small bit of
starter so that it's very active before I go into the next stage of my
baking. It's time consuming from the time I start growing it until the time
it's ready for use, but it takes, at most, five or ten minutes of my time.
