For the case I wrote about, on one side of the plane the ground crew was spraying foam on the wing and engines; everybody had to exit on the other side. FAA wants the entire plane emptied in 90 seconds. In addition whatever you're carrying could injure you during decent (especially at the end - FAA is OK with people breaking ankles) or worse piece the chute. The crew came by and took everybody's shoes and stowed them in the overheads before they checked our brace positions. They also moved me and two other guys in our 20s into the exit row and ejected the three people already there. Our cabin could have been full of smoke, or worse (luckily, it was not at all like that) and so do you think they want to try to explain a decision tree to a bunch of panicked passengers?
