Maybe this will finally get the Ma and Pa Kettles of the "anything for security" bandwagon.

And I can see this being abused for people who don't put up with the shoe carnival too.

I can just see this now:

TSA: Sir, please remove your shoes.
Pax: They're less than an inch, so they're not profile and they have no metal.
TSA: Sir, you're copping an attitude. Please step thru to secondary for a clearance interview and background check. It should only take about 30 minutes until you're cleared to fly. Have a nice flight, if you don't miss it.
