I don’t see this as an issue. It’s a humorous take on an important rule at airport dropoffs- do your business and get moving so you aren’t taking up space in an area meant for high turnover.

When I was a kid, I would have killed for some kind of time limit that began when I was told we were leaving a family gathering and the time we actually left.
That's generous. I've been to some airports where if you stay for more than about 30 seconds, an officer will come and tell you you have to move.
Adding several extra minutes in an active drop off zone is definitely a big nuisance. There are cases where it takes time (eg with young kids) and there's no way around it. But it's not cool that hold up spots for no reason.
Ouch. Which ones? (So I know where to avoid)
Omg TF Greene (PVD) was like that. Don't know if it still is.
The security guard there likes the power trips. Even if there's no other cars lined up at arrivals, and you can see your passenger walking towards you with bags in hand. She will yell at you and try to get you to move along and do a 3 minute loop around the parking lot.
Soon they’ll start charging you for opening your eyes and getting entertainment.
I guess they must have copied the idea from the US or something. Disappointing as that's usually a bad idea.
