So, for those with more experience, what is the preferred way to run a
backup MX (or two or three, etc.) without losing or breaking the
benefit of spam filtering?

For small installations, I find a backup MX is more trouble than it's
worth.  So I just don't bother.  Seriously, if your Exchange server or
whatever is down for more than a couple of hours, you have deeper IT
infrastructure problems than can be solved with a backup MX host

the only real usage of a backup-mx is a "always 450" instance on the same-machine but a different IP because many zombies first try the backup-mx, most never come back and the one which would work with greylisting have some minutes more so URIBL/DNSBL catches them

postfix with postscreen supports such a setup with a single config line
