I too have had this at US outstations where the exact same agent who checked my passport wanted to see it again 5 minutes later during boarding! Her excuse? You might have changed/altered it!
It's annoying, yes.
Sometimes, it's just better to submit. Put on a smile, wish the agent a good day and then forget about it. If one is hanging around the gate, it's not a huge effort to show the passport.
...it won't be long before all we'll need to board an airplane is an iris scan.
