THIS!
I rarely check bags but want a paper bp for a variety of reasons, and to get the doc check done for INTL. With AA or DL, I can walk up the (Sky)Priority counter and hand over my passport, and be done in less than a minute assuming there’s no line.
Once on UA flying EWR-HND-SGN, OLCI didn’t work so was forced to go to the check in area. The Polaris/1K section only had kiosks which I then had to swipe my passport and and wait for a human to clear the visa check screen… Annoys me to no end as well.
