Why do I hear the announcement that "a few passengers haven't boarded so the delay is due to removing their luggage from the hold". If everything is screened 100% why do they need to hold my plane up and remove it?

Nothing is 100% safe.
In the US, this only applies to international flights (only they have positive bag match)
