The ability to bring a 30 LBS roller on per US airline regulations allows me to travel without checked bags much of the time. This saves me a LOT of time and means that much of the time, the airline cannot loose my bags. Makes my travel more efficient and means I always have what I need with me. I win!

The ailrine wins because they don't have to pay baggage handlers to handle my bags. The airline wins!
