If we can just walk past a security checkpoint without being manhandled, then I'm all for it!
You won't be able to "just walk past a security checkpoint without being manhandled" even with these machines in place. Even a metal-free wallet in the pocket could be sufficient for the screener to make sure you are "being manhandled" too.
More manhandling with these machines than for someone who doesn't trigger the WTMD.
