My point is FAs will often ask passengers to be considerate of others when placing their bags in the bin. I don't care if there is no rule carved in stone. We're trying to have a society here -- and to leave on time rather than wait around while the bags of tight connectors (maybe you one day) and a dozen passengers in seating area 4 are tagged at the door.
