I get that some people have business waiting at the pickup and wanting to look professional, but why everybody else?

It's funny because in my country, the airport security would prefer you to wear light clothes so it doesn't mess with their metal detectors. If you wear a formal dress with coats, belts, etc., then it makes their work harder and unless you are Muslim or Sikh they will probably ask you to remove the extra clothes.
