Flex track minimum length for new layout

I'm designing my layout that'll be mostly Ross switch and Ross sectional track and roadbed.  Will use Gargrave flex for many places.  I'm using AnyRail software and inevitably have a few areas that need a filler piece that's not standard.  If I fill that with Gargrave's flex it could be pretty small (a few inches) which doesn't sound structurally like a good idea.  Should I remove another section of track and go for a longer piece of flex track (maybe a foot) that's easier to manage in its place or can I simply cut a piece of the sectional track to fit?  As this is my first layout I'm sure there is a best practice out there.  Likewise there are a few areas that needed 2 or 3 3" straight in a row sections to fit the software and this seems like a waste of $ if I can just cut down a single piece to fit the area.
