Just look at all the "crap" people carried on to the FT do we went to. Oh yeah, things like clothes and laptops. I'd be hard pressed to bet than anyone who stayed there less than a couple days or wasn't an NYC resident checked luggage. I didn't, and I know I saw a lot of carry on sized bags at the do.
You may be fine with the inconvenience in the name of security. But this isn't security. It's just inconvenience.
