Since you passed and all rules should be in clear memory now, maybe you can answer my questions regarding the Passport Card from another thread that you didn't address there:

First you claim that the card is valid only in the continental US. So a traveler to Hawaii can not use it.
Then it is apparently valid for all domestic destinations in your second post (well, at least our Hawaii travelers can use it again) but you claim it is not valid if I am on an international itinerary.
Common for both postings is that you seem to think that TSA has taken on CBP's role of checking passports. I thought this had been cleared up by other TSOs long time ago; The Passport Card should be valid as an ID for entry to the sterile area, independently of the travelers destination.
