It's more than fine, "killing" (you're not really killing them, just more or less clearing a snapshot of the app at the point in time you left it) apps in the background with modern memory management is actually more harmful for battery life.

Back in the early days of iOS and Android when their memory management and optimization was garbage, yea it was better to clear out the recent apps. But it hasn't been true for quite a few years now
