I do something similar to enforce style/substance separation; the plotting is the simplest possible line at the end of the data analysis, and all the stylistic choices are somewhere else. Makes it easy to keep all plot styles consistent during a project, and makes it slightly harder to futz with font prettiness when I should be doing real work.
