I had not considered that. It sounds like it's actually a sound precaution, or would be if TSA weren't so incredibly incompetent and the threat so exaggerated.

Yeah I'm not sure how useful it is in practice - possibly not at all - but at least some of it is intentional and not completely the result of poor management.

I also wouldn't be surprised if some of the apparent incompetence was intentional... but that's just speculation.
