Even if you're a hardcore libertarian, you have to be somewhat pragmatic here. The freedom to do whatever the fuck you want is nice, but being able to board a flight without fearing that it could be endangered by any random fuckwit who doesn't know what they're doing is a bit nicer. While it's not that hard to cobble together some electronics that would have the same effect, this is about limiting it happening because some idiots flipped the wrong switch, or making it just hard enough to stop most evildoers who would do it on purpose from actually doing it.
