Look -- I've had liquids rejected that were absolutely within the acceptable limits. After arguing with a supervisor who could only parrot back what his underling said, I declined screening, was escorted from the checkpoint and left. I then went to another checkpoint in the same terminal and had absolutely no problem. I don't think what the woman did here is a problem. It was essentially the same thing -- except that her liquids were too big. This is certainly nt worthy of a $2k fine.
