Also, I read this today:

"We’ve all been there — standing at the baggage claim carousel impatiently wondering why our bags are taking so long to arrive. Delta hopes to take some of the guessing out of this situation with an exciting new feature in its mobile app. When you open the Fly Delta app you can now track your checked luggage’s location. Delta has started using bag tags with RFID technology, which transmits real-time data to the app and will tell you your bag’s last scanned location."

But how would this help? It would tell me my bag's not there, but it wouldn't actually bring my bag to me.

The ability to track my bag isn't going to make me more likely to check a bag. A stiff penalty for non-delivery will.
