I totally agree but the feature request never caught on and now we're stuck with this not ideal solution.
It's also not just about clutter but also a problem if denying Jellyfin write permissions to the media directory which prevents it from deleting your stuff if it feels like it. Meanwhile the best option for purely manually added metadata is clicking the three dots, edit metadata, do your stuff and save which is horribly slow and can't be backed up separately which is unfortunate.
So all in all I'm with you thinking it would be nice and hope that it'll get implemented one day.
