Maybe.  Depends how much effort one's willing to put into handling her
mail, relative to other things, and how much of that to do now, relative
to later.  To take the extreme case, what if the OP wants to keep the
rules in both formats and keep them in sync?  You don't recommend always
editing both sides, do you?

If OP just wants to switch from Gnus to some Sieve processor for good,
and has only a moderate number of rules, I agree with you.
