Don't you get it? It's another layer of skewrity. TSA knows very well that metric prevails in the 'stan countries, and therefore terrorists will have difficulty getting quart-sized bags over there. Without quart size bags they will not be able to smuggle their liquid WEI onto aircraft. Only genuine red-blooded 'mericans will be able to find genuine approved bags. TSA is keeping Amerika safe.
