Thoughts on Walk and Talks?

Hey folks, I've been seeing more companies doing these walk and talk consultations or partial home inspections where the inspector, the buyer, and the agent all go on a brief tour of the house together. The inspector notes some obvious visible defects, but there's no formal written report or anything and the whole process takes about 30 min. Personally, I don't like it. I think it's going to confuse buyers about what they should expect from a home inspection and they're going to be upset when hidden defects show up and they need to make repairs. Bu-uut... I've also seen the real estate industry lately and at least here (Delaware) buyers are regularly offering 60k, or more, above asking price so I get the crunch too. Curious about what other people think of/are doing with these? Thanks!
