Try this one.
Passenger has "medical emergency" just before departure, e.g. panic attack at last minute, plane departs sans pax.
30 mins later pax, recovered, leaves airport and disappears.
60 mins later "boom."
Judgement calls. I tried to inidcate the non-inclusive nature by
no control and
etc. Yes, in your scenario above, the bags should be pulled. In others, there would be no
need to although SOP might dictate otherwise. Judgement calls; but then the whole security theatre is based on a complete absence of judgement calls. Whether one thinks that's a bad or good thing depends on one's mindset
