Actually, this is what we get for tolerating airlines
that are routinely sloppy with handling checked
baggage, such that some of us grow concerned that our
bags will in fact reach the same destination we are
headed for, at least without a delay of several days
(and major inconvenience in the mean time as we had
planned to rely on things in that checked baggage,
such as the next day's clothes).  Some of the blame
might go to the FAA, but the airlines themselves bear
prime responsibility here.
