Default Bass tournaments...no more weigh-ins?

I don't watch many bass shows nor participate in t'ments but I noticed the other day on ESPN that bass caught were being weighed in the boat with a digital scale, photographed and let go immediately. If this is the new way of weighing fish, its a great change. No more fish dying in livewells or throwing them all into a plastic bag or bin or releasing them all at the same spot. Seems like more mishandling penalties as well such as bass falling onto the boat floor. Guys r no longer jerking them on board with no mercy or tact. Another great change.
