Combine that with the added task of now having to maintain that and constantly change and update, I don't see this as a very good solution.

Hmm... yeah for your businesses dealing with the public, you would need another option...
Just off the top of my head here....
You would use intelligent webforms for all customer communications (ie they have a challenge picture "what does it say in the box?" that they would have to get corrrect before their email gets sent the first time)
You communication back TO them would clearly state not to reply to the communcation and instead use a link that will help link the communication to the problem..... standard ticket system stuff.
In the event they do email you at that address, it will just reply to tell them that their message WAS NOT RECEIVED and they need to click the link and communicate via the webform.
But for your PERSONAL dealings with friends and other businesses, there is no reason why you couldn't use a method like I described in the first post.... ie whitelist
