As an aside, it turns out that the FAA sets _minimums_, not standards.
Both the airline/air freight company and the _airport_ can set additional
standards above those set by the FAA.

This applies to civil airline security as well. You can cruise through
a checkpoint at one airport carrying something (a good example
being a Leatherman tool) but be refused entry at another.
