What is your point?
Baggage is sold on a partially resource-used basis. Airline tickets [currently] are not. There is talk about changing that, and people are discussing their feelings about that potential change.
One obvious difference is that it's easy to choose to take less baggage, but I cannot simply choose to get a foot shorter.
My girlfriend is a foot shorter than me, however, so in some ways my size is offset by hers! Almost like people are different and airlines have chosen to sell to the average instead of selling on a per-resource-used basis.
If the average has changed, and they want to continue their current pricing model, then they need to adjust it to the new average.
If they want to change their pricing model, which is what some people in this thread are discussing, then people are...going to discuss it, some people are going to disagree with the change.
