The people (and luggage) that need to get off have to fight their way over and through the people/luggage that have gotten on at the previous stops.

There are some other airports that don't have well-planned shuttles, but this one seem the worst.
That's just about to change, with the new facility due to open very soon - right across from the terminals.

I hate the one at LAS. A very long ride coupled by a very long walk. Of course, I might be biased by the time when the tunnel was blocked, and it took 45 minutes to get back to the terminal.
