Defeats the purpose of what?

I don't see any reason why those items have to go in a checked bag. You can still check everything else and just carry on those essentials, presumably in a smaller bag for which it will be easier to find space in the overheads. Or are you packing 2 bathing suits, 8 camera lenses and a DVD player?
