Once a completed designed floorspace model has been loaded at one scale, then when expanding to a different scale (e.g. from 1:200 to 1:10) are the dimentions and floor area reliably unchanged in there process?

Do you mean you will change a view from 1:200 to a detail 1:10 and wonder if the dim annotations are kept?  Do you mean change to 1:100? You can always duplicate your view with annotations for testing purposes. In terms of accuracy the dim label is rounding the number. If you change scale and keep the label with the same properties, you should get the same numbers in the end.

You can change the scale of the view at any time.  All detail annotations will scale with the view.  Text and dimension arrows will not scale because they are relative to paper space and their values will not change.

When objects are dimensioned in revit, you can copy the dimension to aly parallel view that has the same objects and the dimensions will be in the same relative place and their values will not change.  Revit is NOT a drafting program.  In most cases, you will be dimensioning model elements and they are the same in every view.
