Yeah, if you're old enough and the lines are light you generally get pre-check without ever enrolling. That's going to catch a lot of people who fly seldom and who aren't up with the latest rules. (Although it will mean less electronics, also. When we were 5 for 5 on pre-check taking her relatives to Canada I was carrying more such stuff than the rest of them combined.)
