Please, try it before refusing entirely.

What I mentioned above, will result in vFolders which basically are the
very same as your Inboxes. In fact, vFolders set up as I mentioned
simply are renamed versions of your actual Inboxes. [1]

If you set up such a vFolder for *all* your Inboxes, there is no need to
leave the tree-view at the top -- at least not the reason told us. Cause
you got a copy of that primary Inbox in the vFolder tree, too.

[1] The only downside is, you cannot move mails *into* those vFolders.
Apart from this, it really is only another name for the very same mail
folder. You even can drag-n-drop mails out of that folder.
