Exactly.

Yup.

Another solution would just be to exclude the user "backup" from the
spam trap:

spam_trap:
   driver = redirect
   condition = ${if def:h_X-Warning: {yes}{no}}
   local_parts = !backup                <=====================
   data = spam
#   file_transport = address_file   <====== you don't need this

See above. But whether it is better or not is moot. I think it is a bit
clearer.
