There is a difference between short term marketing spin and long term commitment to better customer service.
I think it's a data collection excercise. They want to know how good/bad they are at getting bags out. Some stations like the hubs and SFO are actually pretty good. Some, like SJC just stink.

I know I've complained when the Priority Bags don't come out first or it takes 30+ minutes to get a bag, but I also look at it as a rewards system (DL messes up and I collect more miles).
