Walking foot question

Hi all.

I have recently splurged on a walking foot for a couple of projects including making some bags. I've been really impressed with how much straighter my stitching is and am contemplating leaving it on my machine instead of swapping back to my normal presser foot. Does anyone else do this or do I need to switch it back?

I also watched a YouTube video to check I installed it correctly and the presenter recommended stitching a few stitches at 0 for the start and end of my stitching. From what I've done so far it seems to be a nice, clean way of starting and finishing my stitching instead of back stitching. Is that technique also ok to use on my clothing projects?

I thought I'd ask to save any mishaps later :)

Thanks in advance
