I did. I'll reitterate - you haven't established the reasonableness of the "rules".

I would contend they are no more reasonable than the Kabuki security theatre we all must go through prior to getting to the gate. Those are also rules - but most folks here would agree that they are not entirely reasonable or rational. But unlike the dictums of airline policy - THOSE rules at least have been established through the actions of democratically elected representation - which gives them a MORE reasonable and equitable underlying basis than the airline boarding policies - which are often inherently inequitable - do.

BTW, I never said that I DO attempt to circumvent the boarding priority - I'm just taking issue with the underlying assumption that the assigning of those priorities is in any way a fundamentally legitimate set of rules.
