And if the iPad sends half to "wrong" line and half to the abbreviated screening line (just an assumption for this sentence), then that means the TSA only has a 1 in 8 chance of ensuring that the passenger will eventually be sent to the "wrong" line (and once again, the passenger could just simply leave the airport without any repercussions since the administrative search has not begun at that juncture).

Let's not go all radical and un-American and talk about 'no outlays on new equipment and training'.
That is simply NOT going to fly (pun intended).
Security is a for-(big, taxpayer-funded)-profit industry in this country, and don't you ever forget it.
