cf. SFO, LGA, JFK and countless others where this is a normal part of the operation. It's a capacity issue, not a "ridiculous" safety issue.
It is actually a ridiculous safety situation. I'm not sure what you're getting at the capacity issue worsens the safety issue. You can't separate the two, but to claim it's not a safety issue is foolish and like I said it has nothing to do with UA
