Current policy: Go through WTMD. If you beep (after a few chances), you "undergo screening," often including a pat-down. I NEVER beep. My daugther and son NEVER beep. Therefore, almost no pat-downs.
New policy: Either me, my daughter or my son must have nekkid pictures of us taken, or we get trip through the WTMD...AND a pat-down.
Don't you see how that adds up to a lot more pat-downs for me than under current policy, since I am not personally going to be posing for any nekkid pictures, and if you insist on taking nekkid pictures of my daughter or son, I'll pop you one in the nose.
