That looks good to me. A couple point i follow are:
Airflow is important. If there are so many leaves that they mat on top of each other, that can become a breeding ground for mold and pests.
Once you flip over, the plant is going to prioritize flower instead of veg growth which means that any leaf that is shaded will become a energy burden that could be going to the flower instead of sustaining the shaded leaf itself.
The fan leaves at the top of the plant are shading everything below them (im sure lots of people still keep them)
As time goes on , leaves still grow larger and fill in, albeit at a slower rate so even if you thin a little too much, the leaves left will still fill up some of the space created by the prune
Once the buds start growing, say week 3, i look under the skirt as it were, and look for any new stems that have started growing and remove them, as well as any bud sites at the very bottom in the shade, on side branching and remove them. The more energy going to the main crop the better imo
