Gotta say this was a pleasant surprise! I wonder if this is a normal for all US airport nowadays? I mostly travel within Canada so...
Unless it’s a very recent change, I don’t think so. On my most recent three trips (Sep, Oct, Nov), at all the US airports I went through, TSA still required laptops and liquids separated out.
