I’m surprised this took so long to become a rule, but it’s still pretty lame. Airliners are in service for years. A decade after this rule goes into effect, there will still be lots of planes flying that don’t have this additional security measure in place.

They could retrofit the old gen airframes with a velvet rope 2m before the pit door?
