Secondaries (or the possibility thereof) will help to insure that the program doesn't get taken advantage of over time. And we will have to hope the process works in a manner that roots out any bad behavior to show CBP that the whole program is working: both in the selection process and in the enforcement process so that both may be improved together to continue a good program and make it even better over time.
Anyway, the larger point of my post is to agree with
colonius which I take it you agree with as well? that secondaries are a reality in this program. And if someone wants to take their GE credentials as a license to carry a DYKWIA attitude around and then get upset because they are selected for extra screening, good riddance if they want to leave.
