As far as I remember, the removal of the "cross check" requirement on door arm/disarm was also driven by the idea of making the primary responsible for the door through which s/he would evacuate. A great motivator I would think, cock it up and it might get ugly for YOU personally if things go bad.
Yes a great motivator no doubt, however does anyone really think motivating your Employees is more important than the safety of the passengers, surely NOT.
