I don't trust modern basses with those additional screws at the front of the bridge. To me it suggests they are using crap wood, and need all the reinforcement they can get.
Your 'not trusting' has nothing to do with that nor does 'crap wood', whatever you consider that to be. It's basic structural engineering, i.e. physics.
The front screws in a bass bridge are basically ornamental. That part's in compression, there's no stress on the screws. The back screws are in tension, they're being pulled out of the wood by the strings.
Some things just shouldn't be. Vegan steaks and short scale TBirds are two of them.
Germans trying to be funny is one too.
Gert Fröbe was funny.
