OK, I hear ya. Small screwdrivers are allowed through security though, same for non-torch lighters and small quantities of hairspray.

I'm not defending the arbitrary rules. I'm just saying that I went through a similar exercise with different results.

You can get much bigger quantities of such stuff inside the airport (past security). I'd love to document this, but I'm afraid of ending up on some list.

Yeah, and it doesn't really matter. Nobody's going to stop you from buying multiples of the smaller quantity hairspray, in different stores or with friends, etc.
