I used to ride with a saddle bag all the time; if it works for you that’s great.
As a general comment - One thing I do recommend to folks is to drop your saddle and let the air out of your shock just to make sure the tire doesn’t contact the bag at bottom out (seen it plenty of times). Also, as you have done, be sure to not have a strap on the sliding surface as I’ve seen some scratched/work post stanchions.
