Hello and welcome. Very impressive work.
To me, finding the most suitable primitive is a big part of the fun in making parts.
Creating subfiles is also good to do. Make small files and reuse them, mirrored or rotated.
In this case, five subfiles might be to many. A left/right half + short/long tubes, would be a better solution.
Since this is a transparent part any internal surface should be avoided , if possible.
Edge-lines inside a transparent part becomes very visible.
