Leave your wallet behind

As a SLF I think that if I heard the word 'evacuate' then I would be anticipating a ride down the slide. Ditto 'leave all had luggage behind' in any instruction means timeliness is of the essence. But there wasn't even a need to 'hurry up' the de-planing was there ? Why was any haste deemed necessary when the FD were aware and the 'situation' (aka smell) hadn't markedly worsened ? As for evacuating the building but not telling the staff on the top floor............Apologies if I am taking some things as facts when there is uncertainty but frankly I am with the 'Aldi' camp.
