A lot of garages have switched to doing it this way as well, particularly if it's a cheap all in service. Advantage is it's quick and painless. It doesn't however remove all the oil as you have some left in the sump, like getting the last bit of a milkshake through a straw. Also you don't get to check things as much as you would normally, so i'd say do a proper one every once in a while!

I'm not entirely convinced it leaves more oil. From changing mine and checking the dipstick a few times over the last few days to make sure the level was bob on, the oil on the dipstick has been cleaner than after traditional changes.
