I think you have the perfect solution to commercial aviation profitability.

Why? It is not unsafe as it is, and all it would do is move the "problem" from the terminal building to just outside it.

FWIW, though, in India one cannot usually enter the terminal without a ticket. The ticket counters tend to be outside.
