To speed up the boarding process, the gate agents announced a new reverse boarding process. The plane was boarded from the back going forward. Last to board were Medallions and First.

On the premise of boarding from the rear of the aircraft forward, I understand why First would be last to get on. But, why hold out on the Medallions also? Are you saying that a Medallion member in row 30 is denied boarding until the regular people board his row and all the rows before him? How does that save any time? Seems pretty poor to me.
