You don’t need to isolate your turnouts if they are all insul-frogs. You don’t need any insulated gaps in the track if you are operating DCC. More advanced operations create isolated “districts” so as to minimise disruption if a short circuit occurs. If you have a reverse loop, this will require insulation and some extra wiring.
