as long as you have a firewall via iptables or something similar forcing everything through the VPN only, you should be fine I would think.

if not I'll have to change my configs a lot lol.

You are right, it's very simple. Traffic will go wherever is shortest by default, because that's just how networking works on your pc. Shut off the shortest path (or every other path) and it's forced through your VPN connection.
