Default FX to items and not to the whole track in my situation?

I always split a guitar track into different parts
Making it a little louder before signing etc

So in my case isn't it better to add FX like Compression etc to the item and not the whole track?

I think Compression, Volume and EQ can be used there in moderation, so it doesn't vary the overall sound too much from the rest of the track - keeping it sounding cohesive like a single take.

IMO, it's not really a question of better or not, it's what's needed in that situation - which is different for everyone and every track.
