It’s really that easy?

Yes.

2. Given the isolation between Template & App Qubes, is there really any practical reason not to install all of the applications I want to use across various App Qubes in the same Template Qube?

There is an entire topic on that subject:

Do you have a template for each pseudonym/activity, or a template for each application?

For example, if I have a pseudonym John, and I need three apps: A browser (Brave, Trivalent, whatever) SimpleX Thunderbird Would you: create a template named, say, whonix-workstation-17-john, and install the three programs in there (I know whonix-ws already has thunderbird), then create one qube named “john” that uses this one template. or have a template for each program, ws-17-brave, ws-17-simplex, ws-17-thunderbird, and then create 3 qubes for each program: john-brave, john-simplex, …

My answer:

Do you have a template for each pseudonym/activity, or a template for each application?

1 is sufficient.
