Is this all just bulldust or what?

I have it in place to prevent dust entering the OTA
Don't know about the C9.25, but with the 10" you have the option of the larger visual back.

I can't see that the filter would add anything to the image. Placing more glass/surfaces in the light path could only degrade the image. Unless you have a compelling reason to use it I can't see much point to the filter.

I do tend to change eyepieces over quickly rather than leave the tube open to the outside.
