Yes, many people do work like that - I get a couple of thousand emails
a day and I couldn't cope if they weren't filtered first (for me
filtering is server side, but it's the same principle).  There is no
"correct" way, do whatever is best for your working practices.

You should be able to set a default account in Edit -> Preferences (I
think that works in 3.28), it then uses that account as the default. 
But if you use IMAP, then it will use the email address of whatever
account you are currently looking at as that takes precedence over the
default.

You could also set a folder send account override on the Inbox to
ensure that everything gets sent as your preferred account.
