Also, I think we're seeing a desire to centralize customer service... which also makes sense when you're trying to standardize the experience. Say what you want about the experience that is had... I'm sure we can all dig "horror stories" out of our back pockets.
Now, what the OP describes doesn't sound awesome and seems to defy common sense. Makes me wonder about the user experience. For example, was there a sign that said you needed to scan in and you just decided to go to the line?
I'm not a fan of the workflow of scanning a QR code, being directed to a web form, filling out the web form, etc. I'd rather see a boarding pass scanner than then handles the form directly in the kiosk, and provides queue updates directly in the Delta app.
