Still, this isn't a government conspiracy. It's more like government bureaucracy. You call it incompetence, and that's fair. I've worked with government agencies long enough to know that this, too, comes with the territory.
I don't lose any sleep over it.
You're right - it is incompetence. How could TSA NOT account for the fact that 95% of the world uses the metric system when coming up with the policy?
Of course, given the stupidity of the policy, it makes sense that it would be stupidly implemented.
