Not sure who here I saw recommend and/or extoll the virtues of using the camera this way but I did so for my most recent outing (3 days in the Merced National Wildlife Refuge) and man do I prefer it!
Previously I was in manual mode with auto ISO and would fine tune with the exposure compensation dial.
I found the new way gives me a faster, finer and broader range of control and I also found, though I’ll need to use it more this way to know for sure, that I got good exposures with lower ISO’s than when in auto ISO.
All that is to say thanks to whomever reco’d or mentioned this set up.
