I would assume that, just like the rest of the population, some terrorists are idiots, some are smart, some are brilliant, and many are in-between. This control might catch some of the idiots and it might catch someone who failed to prepare properly for this particular control, even if they are not idiots.

The question is: How many terrorists would this control catch versus the cost (both in dollars and in civil rights)?
