I won't even sign it until the fuel load is correct, I keep it on my yoke clip to remind me we don't have our fuel yet! No way am I going to sign it at the desk and walk onto the airplane...with the cabin cleaners still doing their thing, long before we have all the required items.
This is obviously some tool's attempt to reduce "gate latency".
