Drums with holes and slots...gimmick or discovery?

Cymbals and/or snare drums with holes in them...gimmick or discovery?

When a cymbal would crack it was advised to drill a hole to stop the crack from speading in order to save the cymbal. Now there are new cymbals being manufactured with large holes littered all over them. Can anyone using these cymbals comment on the effect of this design?

Snare drums too. Holes and slotted. Merely an attempt by drum companies to motivate additional purchases or is this really an amazing discovery?
