file paths are wrong

If that's all you need to exclude from rewriting, yes.

For me, the condition filtering assets requests is the most important one. I need this only when running the setup (because there are no assets yet).
By centralizing your assets in one directory, you also don't have to think about modifying your .htaccess when you introduce a new file type.

This is important when you move the rules to httpd.conf (using .htaccess is expensive), you don't want to have to restart the (production) webserver if it isn't absolutely needed.
