They are still seeded with their age-groups so theoretically you would have slower swimmers in each age-group. Again theoretically if you grouped slower swimmers together regardless of age then you wouldn't have one or two swimmers slowing entire heats (probably more of a factor with 400 IM, 800 Free, and 1500).
OK, got ya. However the long events are already seeded by time rather than age, but even with the shorter events those few seconds here and there add up over the course of a day so it probably would make some difference if all events were seeded like that.
