So I haven't seen anything other than this article about this, but I agree, this is completely unnecessary. It honestly feels like a good ol' fashion airport power trip. TSA agents, low level supervisors, airport security thinking they are the most important people in the world, and that you have to respect their authority. And just like some law enforcement officers, they are willing to use ridiculous force. They don't listen to reason, they don't care what their written rules are, they just think you need to do whatever they say. And many times, there's not much you can really do about it, other than complain afterward. On the other hand, customer service jobs would be a lot easier without customers, especially if they are irate/drunk/unreasonable/etc.
