I can understand abandoning your personal items if you're blocking an aisle or exit to do so...
I just feel like if I were in that scenario, and I was physically able to do so, I would absolutely grab my carryon containing my laptop, phone, chargers, credit cards, passport, etc; essentially my life when I'm traveling...
I don't want to be stuck behind someone rummaging around looking for the bag that holds their toys while the cabin is filling with smoke. Call me old fashioned, but my life is more important than your iphone charger.
