When I was still a CO elite, my "priority" tagged bag would invariably come off the belt in the last third of the bags.

The first flight after I became a peon again, and with my bag now no longer tagged "priority," my bag was the first one off the belt...

I'm not sure you understand the program. It was clearly working - your bag was the first one on the plane every time.

When an international flight entering the U.S. does not pick up any domestic passengers, it can continue to a second destination and passengers and their luggage inspected there.
