There's nothing wrong with it if you like it to be that way but this is not the default rule set the distribution comes with. Due to the standard chain ACCEPT policies it allows all inbound and outbound traffic. And in that state the one rule listed is unnecessary. What are you trying to accomplish? What services should be protected?
