This certainly is good improvement. However ,for this method to work you really have to have good manager who understands issues, have vision and puts Org. interest and employees interest before self interest. Since I started my career I had couple of selfish , egocentric and narcissistic managers ( mostly Indians, sorry but truth) who literally tried to block my career path. So I would suggest not just have everything done by your manager , which apparently leads to bureaucracy, rather have at least another check ( another manager, group) review what your manager is saying.

Why is it relevant to say they were Indian? As if your anecdotal experience says anything about managers or Indians in general

My comment was in general what I think could be better way for evaluation and while citing that I phrased my personal past experience with Indian managers. It was no way on stereotypical side.
