Not a bad way to do it; no need for it during Zones 1-3; it'll only save time in Zones 4-9.
Of course, those who would need it (and qualify) in zones 4-9 weren't there when they made that first announcement. Or was this repeated again during the boarding process? If the latter, then a big ^! CO and NW don't do mid-boarding explanations, in my experience.
