I generally do not travel with liquids other than single-serve packs of toothpaste, which I did not remove from my bag and nobody said anything. They did give me the PreCheck Lite treatment so it was probably overlooked.

At DCA and JFK my preferred airports, my experiences over the years have been markedly different from yours. I am in favour of waiting in queue extra 15 mins as long as I do not have to take off shoes and belt and laptops etc. Not even a contest for me...
