Nobody who actually experienced queues prefers them. Reminds me of an old joke from before the fall of communism: A person feeling tired leans on a wall to catch his breath. Somebody notices him and stands beside. A few hours later a queue has formed. New people arriving ask "what is this for?". The original person replies "I have no idea, but I can’t leave now - don't you see I am the first in line?!"
