The frequencies that will rinse people's ears tend to be in the audible range -r-

Put more seriously - if it sounds better to lowpass then do it, but more than likely the real trouble lies significantly lower than 22050Hz ;)

Not counting vinyl prep, I might LPF one mix in..... 8 or 10, maybe? As always... it depends.

I have heard a few pro's have a a few EQs on the master that cut some top end and also boost areas around the snare/clap to give more snap.
Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.
