BUTSo if the sterile area to which passengers are admitted qualifies (and I don't see how it wouldn't), and verbal confirmation of name is defined somewhere as one of the 'systems, measures or procedures' then it does have a basis in law of some kind. A very vague administrative law; which is exactly how the TSA likes it.
Allow me to state what should be the obvious:

If the "systems, measures or procedures" referenced by these regulations (they are not laws) are unconstitutional, you do not violate the regulations by failing to undertake the systems, measures or procedures.
