I am sure Delta could implement it easily if it was a priority for them. Honestly, if you're someone who is super worried about germs, self tagging bags is actually more exposure because you're touching the kiosk as opposed to just handing your ID to the agent and putting your bag on the scale.
UA is installing touchless kiosks. I'm not sure how that actually works in practice though as never used one.
