That would be the easiest way to speed up loading/unloading - get rid of those big carry-on bags.
Furthermore, airstairs are typically narrow with little or no room to overtake when carrying luggage - so one person moving very slowly will delay a long queue of people
Passing people on stairs while carrying luggage?
