    ... SQL Server doesn't really support code reuse in a useful way...

    I would say that it's very arguable statement...

    😉

    I'd take Grant's side in any such argument.

    In general, it's a trade off (in SQL) between code reusability and performance. Yes, there are way to write code like this so that it's reusable in a myriad of possible queries. The performance will suffer badly as a result.
