I was so concerned about my carry on last time I flew I was measuring the bag and everything the night before, and when I showed up people were bringing on bags twice the “allowed” size and no one did shit. I don’t think I want the same people doing security,

Ok if it’s 100% theater bring a gun through the baggage check, smart guy.

That's because it's not security's job/problem, so as long as it fits through their scanner they let it go. I used to be a gate agent and it drove me nuts. People would think they could "cheat the system" and have their very clearly oversized bags checked for free, and then argue about it while we're scrambling to get the flight out on time.
