If this is true it is a common practice, because all themes I tried so
far (about 5) show this behavior.

I inspected nord-theme (1) and it contains

`(mode-line ((,class (:foreground ,nord8 :background ,nord3))))
`(mode-line-buffer-id ((,class (:weight bold))))
`(mode-line-highlight ((,class (:inherit highlight))))
`(mode-line-inactive ((,class (:foreground ,nord4 :background 
,nord-uniform-mode-lines-background))))
