No matter that 95% of my flights, I carry less than 25 pounds (of course, how would he know that and it's really irrelevant), no Thank you for flying more than 100,000 miles this year, or the over 1.5 million BIS miles before it. So if they can "feel" 4 pounds. I would not be surprised if they notice that one extra inch.
