Not at all. They'll still let you on the plane after grilling you. They just want to know that you're hiding something. For future reference.

It's hard to tell sarcasm over this medium, but are you suggesting that being asking someone questions about their travel plans and retaining notes derived from to the answers is not an appropriate power to give the TSA? Is there any country in the world where airport security doesn't have this power, and is it practically feasible?
