If you start with the assumption that PRE can be at one checkpoint only, maybe (and as an E-ticketed pre pax who always stops by the ticket counter for a boarding pass and 99.9% of the time is checking a bag, it would be interesting if there was a scientific study on the subject), maybe.

That, though, ignores that PRE was previously offered at multiple checkpoints [and is still intermittently offered on C, though it seems to be a relative crapshoot], and it inconveniences both PRE passengers on A/C who utilize the ticket counters and/or check bags as well as non-PRE passengers on B regardless of ticket counter usage.
