The whole story seems inflated, to me, but then I'm detached. From an axel point of view, it's just nuts, but it's starting to torque somebody off. We've seen this before: now it's a re-tread.

It seems, at a minimum, the "wheel-off" switch deserves a guard. Let's not forget, though, that United breaks guitars.
Bravo….
