That is definitely the down side. When you exit the C shuttle in the Main Terminal, you join with everyone coming through security and heading to their gates/shuttles. You CANNOT exit the security area through the smoked glass doors close to Harry's Tap Room (they are now posted "Emergency Exit Only" and alarmed) - you MUST go down the escalator inside the security area and exit into the baggage claim area with everyone else.
