Yeah, that sounds more sensible than the seasoning/oil rubbing/sacrifice to the ancient ones sorta stuff that inevitably pops up whenever someone mentions cast iron.
Seasoning/oil rubbing makes sense because it creates a layer of polymer that won't let rust in. You remove it with soap which is why it can rust if you don't dry it fast.
