Went through YYZ transborder Nexus on May 4, laptop in.

But considering that liquids must still be out, and all other high metal content items (watches, shoes in many cases, change, etc) are going to cause secondary screening anyways and so must be out/off, don't really see the benefit in being able to leave laptop in (even if it was done more consistently).

I agree with Aspan, bigger hassle is the whole bin/no bin fiasco. Some force you to put it in a bin, others seem to react like "Why the heck did you put that in a bin?!", and then others stop the train to put a bin face down between you and the previous person in line. Like many FT'ers I am all about maximizing efficiencies to get through security ASAP, so this inconsistency frustrates me to no end.
