I wouldn't really call a case design very good if the filter
panel is both restrictive enough and small enough it needs
the additional fan to overcome filter resistance, but I
would still want a front intake fan behind the filter panel
so the case is positive pressurized to the extend it pulls
most air through that filter panel instead of the little
gaps elsewhere.

On the other hand, one case I set up with a filter panel I'd
added, I had doubts whether the user would clean the filter
panel as often as it should be so I left the case negatively
pressurized with most of the air being filtered but if the
filter were to get clogged it doesn't completely starve the
system, at that point a higher % of air coming through the
cracks is better than nothing (and relatively it was a low
power, energy conservative system).

Like another posted earlier, you indeed were fortunate enough to have
your review posted by Newegg. I had mine rejected for posting that the
item was defective. At least they had the decency to reply back and
tell me this was the reason.
