I don't know what type of OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) this person has, and may be sorry about the following comment, BUT - when it is time for a plane to leave, it should leave. Waiting for one passenger that KNEW about the time and made the DECISION to not be on the plane is wrong. Waiting for connecting passengers due to no fault of their own is another story.

I agree. OTOH, when NW knew that there were connecting pax from a delayed flight en route to the gate of a last flight out at DTW and released the flight early, there is no excuse or justification for that.
