As one who spent a significant portion of his life traveling throughout the world dealing with medical problems, I can assure you that I realized great disappointment on many occasions with the delivery of myself/possessions, and never knew what criteria would be applied for boarding, personal/belongings inspection, only knowing that "carry-on" reasonably assured that myself/belongings would arrive somewhere together, if possessions weren't subjectively confiscated. The medical industry generally relies on opinions, rather than fact, as proper diagnosis would entail significant extensive/expensive observation, and has evolved as an expensive litigious industry. There is little uniformity in the TPG industry as cited by "plus grading" , CAC, etc.. I wouldn't expect a dealer, selling a "competitive product", to deliver other than an opinion, as is the modus operandi of the expensive TPG Et Al industry.
