I suspect VHFRT is talking about the experience as crew. It's a very different experience to being a pax in the US. I had a choice of going through international security screening in Australia or the US I'd pick the US every day of the week. They don't treat crew as a threat but as a fellow member of the team required to secure an aircraft.
Of course, in Australia security staff treat crew with the same disdain they treat everyone else. Aussies are good like that.
