Yes, a for loop processes a word list, not good for proccessing a file line by line.
A while read loop is appropriate.
The read command processes one (more) line, so each loop cycle processes one line (until the read has bad exit status because there are no more lines).
Within a cycle the conditions are processed in sequence.
