No, I wouldn't. My .config is highly customized, and the way I
described just fits my needs perfectly. I'm quite aware of the
possibility to build a kernel via rpm, but I don't want to do that.

Just to make it clear: what I described is just what I do and have
done.  There's more than one way to do it. There's no "wrong" or
"right".
