Many of us on the same flight, it seems. I was in 5D (6th opup in a row). Immigration for me was reasonably smooth. The only thing screwing things up was the lady directing express connections in front of lines in a pretty random fashion. I wasn’t paying too much attention, but probably about 15 minutes to get through for me.

Yes that and then suddenly starting to separate the manual lanes into first timer ESTAS (didn't even recall that was a thing anymore, at least not ORD) and others with work and student visas...
