If most guys could use a tapered meat bag...which totally stops the 'balling' effect of meat settling and bulging...they would probably be amazed at what a difference it makes when carrying a heavy meat load. This, whether using a shelf or inside the main bag.
Yes, but you don't necessarily need a tapered meat bag to accomplish that. As long as you have a good way to tighten it down closer to the frame the meat stays put pretty well instead of sagging to the bottom. I've also seen guys put some of their gear in the bottom of the bag to elevate the meat load.
