Wikipedia:Navigation templates says : "The goal is not to cram as many related articles as possible into one space. Ask yourself, does this help the reader in reading up on related topics?" and "They should be kept small in size as a large template has limited navigation value." I think 50 or 100 links is about my limit. Any more and I get information overload.
Some people, such as
Thomas Corwin, served in multiple districts. If you go with a grand unified navbox, you will need to clean up redundant invocations.
I noticed that
Thomas Corwin still calls this template three times. I still think 500 names is way too many for a navbox, no matter how they are organized. It just duplicates Category:Members of the United States House of Representatives from Ohio

To the original question. Yes. Easy to find, easy to navigate. We don't need 20+ tiny templates when one can just handle every name. But the unified field is practically useless if there are not separated by districts and kept in chronological order.
