Yeah, that's a positive. I guess they figure it's the same whether you have your bags with you or not when they interrogate, and the dogs can sniff the bags before they come out anyway. And obviously if you fail to declare something they can come find you and your bags.
Anyway, the passport inspecting agent now is not as fast as the bag/slip inspecting agent at the baggage claim exit used to be. So net loss in speed.
