I think the idea of the new system is to make people more proactive. Like you said earlier, it used to be that most people would drop their cades and then relied on the fact that sooner or later someone would chicken out and build the cades. The main reasons for this kind of behavior seem to be:
1) Laziness.
2) Everyone did it.
3) People sometimes didn't know the proper spots.
4) If you misplaced a cade, people would mock/insult you.
Naturally, this was a much more convenient and easy system, but the real question is whether it makes the gameplay more interesting if 80% of the team drop their support item and then lean back and do nothing between waves.
One thing seems certain, though. Proactive engineers, competent shielders, and slashers seem to have become more important again.
