How? Are they processing more units from the queue per second? Is it easier to find the vague end of a line among a jumble of people than the head of a queue? Are LIFO queues more likely to have something in them than FIFO queues thus avoiding wait times for the next customer and idle staff? Is it a good idea to leave a large portion of boarding to the last few minutes of the boarding interval?
- dnautics 11y agoThere's probably also a pareto equilibrium illusion going on. If you screw the one person at the bottom of the stack, but serve everyone else more efficiency, is that 'the best choice'? Indeed, there may be no way to rearrange the order of service so that no one is worse off, but that is not necessarily the 'correct' optimal.
