>a flight overflying the US will often land in the US, and a plane ordered by US authorities to land while overflying has to comply. Lots of US influence in this area.

Is it possible that some people are afraid of being charged with "Conspiracy against the United States" [1] and that they have to wait a long time in the USA until a jury decides that they are innocent?

It's possible, sure. That's never been high on the list of criminal charges I've ever heard people worry about, but I'm sure it's relevant to some people.
