That's twice now that you have failed to grasp the cost vs benefit thing.

I'm complaining about the extra seconds spent on each of the hundred people in line in front of me, when there is close to zero additional detterent.

As for the interview-every-passenger approach, that is a different balancing. unlike the stare-at-each-id-intently-for-half-a-minute policy, it might actually catch someone. But it will cost a crapload more in terms of TSA budget, and likely in terms of time. And as it is, we have not successful terrorist attack resulting from a beach in airport security since I don't know when.
