1. Good question, I have not watched a the images of a bag going through a scanner. However, when I came through Denver last Saturday they were able to fully distinguish a mini-stapler in my backpack and the stapler was piled in with a bunch of other shit. Yes the stapler is metal, but, there were multiple other metal objects around it (pens, ruler, scissors, etc.).
2. Yes. Their job is to protect air travelers, not "selectively give a shit."
While I was waiting to go through security in Denver, I was looking at the little table, which always sits at the security entrance, with all the shit people leave behind and there were matches on it, hence when I made my broad statement about matches.
