I suspect the testing is only being done on a planeload of people who've just recently sat down.
Keep them in their seats for 3 hours, knees jammed into the backs of seats, passengers with laptops and blankets and slippers, some of them asleep - and then see if you can evacuate a plane in 90 seconds.
