Default Secondary for Vanilla Chocolate Oatmeal Stout?

I have had this on primary for 8 days and I was planning on leaving it there for about 15 days, then racking on top of the cocoa and the vanilla whisky extract and leave in secondary for 3 weeks (I won't be home during these weeks) Would this be too long?

But since I've read stouts don't really benefit from a secondary I thought I could maybe shorten the first fermentation to about 12 days, then do a 3 day secondary with the vanilla and cocoa and bottle before leaving home, what are your thoughts on this?

Thanks

Shouldn't have any problems dumping the vanilla and cocoa into primary.
