In general having at least two part names will reduce the need to work out
the schema and therefore be more efficient. Therefore using two part names
in stored procedure and other code is a good idea.

This is assuming that the database name does not change! It may be better
just to organise the scripts so you have separate scripts for each database
and then you only need to worry about setting the database once when making
the connection (-d parameter for osql or SQLCMD ) and there would be no USE
statements at all.
