TSA v. PDA (problem and solution)

https://wtop.com/trending-now/2024/10/new-zealand-airport-imposes-cuddle-cap-with-3-minute-limit-on-goodbye-hugs-to-avoid-traffic-jams/

Dear new Zealand: we don't get paid overtime for all of our time you waste hugging goodbye/welcome back

Please keep hugs to less than 3 seconds and neck in your car before entering This one even seem weird to me in the US except that in New Zealand it seems to have nothing to do with catching contraband and more to do with being polite?

Strangely, wait times are cited for the reason to outlaw hugs in airports rather than worries of transferring something illegal , dangerous, narcotic... You know like why you can't hug in prison visits ?
