Bought one of these and never use it. So much easier to just use baby wipes.

Oh they definitely are to the tunes of millions. I don’t have time right now to find the best sources for you but you can look it up if interested there is a lot of published and likely even more industry unpublished data on this. Planing and deplaning speeds do make a difference.
I’m betting on the money. If you think the airlines haven’t looked at whether it would be more expedient and therefore profitable to organize deplaning or leave things to animal instincts you are underestimating their greed.
Are you making assumptions or do you have stats on this?

It likely does. The chaotic bumrush wouldn’t be permitted by the airlines if it didn’t work. The sense of panic in promotes is probably good for deplaning averages. Like so many things that are good for corporations, it’s very damn unpleasant for customers.
Sounds great. They could just turn the lights on one column at at time as a signaling strategy. Of course it doesn’t solve the God forsaken cursed chaos that is baggage in an overhead further back than one’s seat. That is like a three body level type of conundrum.
At the risk of sounding boomer despite not being boomer, have others noted a decline in basic decency with deplaning? In the past maybe two years or so even I’ve never seen so many people from the back of the plane rush ahead into the aisle blocking people in front of them from getting out and disrupting the hell out of the standard row by row front to back organized way to get off a plane. Last. Flight I took when I got into the tunnel some lunatic behind me tried to trample me, stepped on the heel of my shoe and ripped my shoe off. Not even a “sorry” Modern air travel is the epitome of enshitification.

Bixby is rumored to become more of a true personal assistant that anticipates your needs.”
I’m imagining it and it’s horrible. For this to be useful it would have to be so incredibly perfect. The frustration factor on this would be through the roof. Just give me a silence button on my calender that I can program if I want to. Even that is a little frivolous but it’s simple and reliable at least. When is someone going to just break and make a fast, small, simple, reliable phone that doesn’t get bogged down in crap?

As a society we eat a diet that has changed far more rapidly than evolution can keep up with and we are fatter than we should be for good health. Maybe something like these agonists can offset some of these issues a bit, but before we have a long term understanding of such drugs of course we shouldn’t go all in.
