> Overbooking airplanes means someone might be stuck sitting in the terminal for hours.

It also might mean you miss getting somewhere in an emergency, like visiting a loved one before surgery. And it also might mean you miss things you couldn't miss, like a job interview.

One of the worst memories of my life started by missing a flight (and it wasn't my fault).

These days, it's thankfully rare that people are forced off a flight. The worst problems I've had have come from having a flight cancelled with all the next flights fully booked. As long as the airline can point to weather, they don't have to put you up in a hotel or pay your cab fare to get to a flight at another nearby airport.
