It's even how we do it 90% of the time on our race cars.
If your replacing lines, then thats alittle different story as you'll have huge air pockets.
each person does it there own way, so do whatever works best for you and what you feel most comfortable with

Fair enough. I've seen, but never used, a system that pumps fluid from the bleed nipple back through the lines to the master cylinder. Probably a great way to do it since gravity is working on your side to get bubbles out of the line. Then you just use a turkey baster, or something like that, to suck the extra fluid out of the MC.
