If the bounty payout is higher than the cost of ship after insurance and the gear on it, then it's profitable to self-collect.
I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

You're saying it should be modified, but despite understanding the problems with the system, you're not proposing any ideas. At least propose some kind of half-hearted solution.

I would too, but most wouldn't, and didn't, when self-collection was possible. Your idea, while noble, doesn't account for the profitability of self-collection.
The only way I can see to make bounties slightly better is to up the rate for T2/T3/faction kills, because those payouts are still based on drawn-down insurance values/mineral values. But this would require a lot of balancing work, and gankers don't use those ships anyway.
