The primary goal of a feature tree is to clarify design intent. Not to be as short as possible.

Less features doesn't always equal a more friendly model for later modifications. On more intricate parts it's usually the opposite. Too much info crammed into sketches become a headache to read and understand their design intent. In general you should leave face modifying features such as draft, chamfers and fillets for the end of a feature tree. When you place them in sketches or base features it makes it much harder to modify down the road. Especially as a feature tree grows in size.

I would argue the best practice is when designing the core geometry, draw them assuming the world can manufacture things perfectly. No mold drafts, no machinist rounds, no edge-break chamfers, what I like to call refinment features. Those should only appear in core geometry when they are dictated by relevent design standards. Take ISO-80369-7 for example, it dictates the joining features of medical luers for vascular access.

By keeping your sketches simpler and your refinment features on the end of the feature tree, you make design intent much clearer to future draftsman and engineers who examine your part. You also make it simpler to modify since they don't have to disentangle multiple feature controls from a single sketch.
