Only really works if you have single passengers - if you have couples, families etc, then it falls apart - you don't want one of them boarding (and inadvertently taking the other person's ID or baording pass with them) and causes issues.

Prioroty deplaning. Let the pax who has a close connection get off first. The passenger who has a four-hour wait can afford to stay a bit longer

Which is fine if you can identify those passengers - but if you are flying on a different airline, you can't, and their connection might be just as tight, or they might be transferring to another airport, or transferring to ground transportation, or have a critical meeting to get to - everyone has a reason for wanting to get somewhere, I think all you can do is ask those not in a hurry to wait (but then a not in a hurry aisle blocks a hurry window, and they have to kerfuffle around). Better to de-plane through 2 sets of doors, rear and fore.

Know what you are doing with IRROPs ahead of time. (99% of the pax want to rebook on the next flight. 1 passenger needs to rebook to Fargo via FLL and recover his luggage and has a special diet.) GA, don't spend the next 25 minutes on the 1% and make the 99 others wait.
