Mind you I never bother with the sump plate. It doesn't have a drain hole and there is only a cup full at the most in there (on my 1982 SC engine), so I leave that.

My 85 Carrera has no sump plate, but it does have a drain plug. I usually get two or so quarts from the engine. Again, with a magnetic plug, I like to see the magnet and inspect and clean it.
If I had an appliance like car, that was not something I was going to keep, yea the suction method would be fine.
