Somehow I don't see this being a big benefit to pilots.
If you don't see walking through security in 15 seconds without lifting or unpacking your bags a benefit I would love to know what you consider a negative. The employee lines in many airports often have long lines with other employees. I have never seen a long line of pilots.
