Everyone at home with everyone else, on the whole (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allinall

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'else on the whole' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'everyone at home with everyone' is the wordplay.
'everyone' becomes 'all' (all people).
'at home' becomes 'in' ('I'm in' can mean 'I'm at home').
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'everyone' becomes 'all' (all people).
'all'+'in'+'all'='ALLINALL'

Can you help me to learn more?
