It is.

It's not also how they look up close? Why does DCI still produce multi-cam videos then? Why do corps still march in parades?

 You really asking those two questions to prove you're right?  Parades and Multi cams?
I learned from Shirlee Whitcomb, it's about the overall view, judging the detail falls under individual performance qualities which doesn't take design details into numbers.
Yet I do realize when we used a tic system, the score was given in the uniformed details, but the activity has moved forward from that mind set many many years ago.

There was at time when colorguards wore similar if not the same uniform as the corps proper; so I suppose it was inevitable that the time would come when the corps proper would start dressing like the colorguard. :doh::laugh: If the members dig it and are having fun, that's what matters. :thumbup:

How many parades do corps march anymore compared to back in the day? 

DCI produces multi-cam videos because drum corps is moving slowly towards theater on the football field and using a multi-cam view is basically the same as using a metaphorical spotlight on the stage to showcase important moments in a "story-line"

And now we're at the point where the Cavaliers guard stays in one uniform for the entire show while their hornline and drumline remove multiple pieces throughout the show :D 

Total reversal of the past!
