Disagree. I don't feel the threat is real, and the very fact that the people in charge of this bullhockey well allow a greater known threat to be accepted vs a threat that may or may not happen....
How many instances of battery "incidents" (i.e. Galaxy Note 7 Style) does it take to realize that sticking these things in the hold is a terrible idea?

I think that is the goal that we should be aiming for. Given that we it's 99.9% sure that the ban is coming.
I disagree with you because I can never support security theater. It ignores true risk.
