If liquids are a threat, why are ANY allowed in? What's to stop, Bill, Ted, and Mary Jane from combining their 3.4 ounces into something harmful?
It's a balance between security and allowing people to have some ability to carry-on items. Well now Bill, Ted, and Mary Jane all have to work together to carry out their plan. That makes it more difficult. You can nit pick at every rule, such as why 3.4 ounces, but there have to be parameters around things. The rules strike a balance between security concerns and the ability of a business/leisure traveller to pack enough in a carryon to get through a 4 day trip.
