To me I don't really consider all this listed above the most important thing to do is to monitor and build your trust from that particular exchange even as we know that using one particular exchange is risky but provided they are trusted and have all the trading pair you required then no need jumping from exchange to exchange most at times we can have difficulty with passing kyc and other important things that could be needed by the exchange.
You are right.

When I saw IRS and tax returns in the OP, I was like this isn't relatable. In my country, we don't do tax returns on crypto not when the government is anti crypto.

The reason why I keep using the same exchange or why I will.is because in addition to having the trading pair that I require, the have a P2P exchange market place that gives a fair value of exchange to my fait whenever I want to trade better than the others out there.

One of the reasons why I think it's best to consistently use the same exchange, is for valuation purposes to maintain consistency, it is so as to determine the fair market value of a cryptocurrency is for during tax preparation. It's how the IRS wants cryptocurrency transactions to be reported on tax returns.
Quote
While "fair value" and "fair market value" are similar, they aren't the same;

Fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a particular date.

Fair market value is usually used when evaluating assets and liabilities for tax purposes. It is the price that any property would sell for on the open market. It is the price that would be agreed on between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with neither being required to act, and both having reasonable knowledge of the releva facts.

The IRS' guidance on this also states that if any crypto is not traded on any exchange, but maybe it was trades pair to pair, P2P, or received as income, the fair market value is whatever the crypto was worth on the date it was received.

So, why do prefer to consistently use the same exchange?

Let's discuss!
