You must be in a pretty restrictive bubble if you believe the "compromise" needed to accept the boarding pass system creates a fragile situation.

If you were talking about the security theater around travel, as well as garbage like secret no-fly lists, I'd agree with you.

But requiring a boarding pass to get on a plane is no more ridiculous to a near-total majority of humans than requiring a ticket to watch a movie at a theater.

Does Ridley Scott get a list of the names of people who watch his films?

I'm not sure how you equate watching a movie (which many would consider a relatively safe activity) to riding a plane with hundreds of other people (which some might consider not necessarily risky, but riskier).

But sure, I guess I'll say "no, he doesn't". Now what?
