Except for the people who are falsely accused and may be hassled in the process.
Around 15 years ago I would often schedule last minute flights while traveling for work. When I did, I almost certainly would receive an enhanced screening from TSA. I was the false positive, and when traveling on tight schedules, I was not amused at the frequency in which I was considered suspect (in contrast to the treatment from the airlines, who treated me like royalty). Of course, TSAs true positive rate is 0%.
