I guess they are supposed to tell passengers via PA to only take the amenity kits.
First week or two, they encouraged people to keep the items, then made a 180. I purchased a Polaris ticket in December and would not have been happy if I wasn't able to use it. Especially after United sent me numerous emails about how I was going to love the service.
While you may be right that MOST of the time this is not an issue, it should never happen IMO.
