I have my doubts but you might be right.

Why do you think YMMV? I've seen them ask for inbound BPs every time this has come up, with me (SS, since I'm exempt from MLL rule), and other random people, and they have
always let the pax in.

With the bag issue? I can't say I'd make a different decision. And with 3.5 hours from scheduled gate arrival to bag drop, you're realistically looking at 3 hours, at most, in domestic. And then maybe the same in INTL.
Without a bag, I'd agree there are many other things to do, but I don't know why this has to come up in threads like this every time someone asks a question like this. Everyone knows it's possible to leave the airport on a domestic arrival. There's a reason they're not planning for that.
