Those "teach them a lesson they won't forget" delays will likely also affect pax with Precheck. I don't believe you have to have a RealID to get Precheck.

And of course there will be delays because some TSOs will inevitably think they are able to spot 'undocumented immigrants' deserving of special attention - the 'big catch' - while everyone else in line waits longer.

Because nothing is more suspicious than a shiny brand new RealID.
