In my opinion SK has slightly improved. In GOT I have experienced they actually try to put "priority" luggage first on the conveyor belt, of course it does not always work but it has improved. LH in my opinion is even better, in FRA & MUC they usually load "priority" luggage separate, then we should not even talk about the HON Tags, they ware worth gold...always seen HON luggage first on the belt at several stations.
In my opinion it is not a way to make you feel better, but for sure it depend a lot if the airport you arrive in.
