I've always wondered why the rules get so paranoid that baggage can't travel if the passenger doesn't get on a flight, so it has to be removed. Yet it's OK for an airline to send the baggage on a next flight when it alone get's delayed at an airport. Freight has to be an equally dodgy thing. Even so given the prevalence of the suicide bomber in modern terrorism, accompanied or unaccompanied isn't really a precaution.
