Repeated final boarding calls seems to be standard practice even when quiet. For example I’ve seen this circa 2:15-30pm (having arrived early and walked through empty security) when the only people in the lounge were 30-odd heading to Manchester, 40-odd heading to Groningen and some stragglers for Dublin. Still people fail to make it out the bar and we watched a couple from he Dublin flight get offloaded.

I would be shocked if the actual wait wait time was anything like 45 mins.
