From an engineering point of view it makes really good sense because the better you can estimate a plane’s weight the better you can maximize efficiency blah blah blah. But these are humans not numbers, and it’s a bit rude…
Planes have a maximum weight, and it really matters where exactly in the plan that weight is. Even if it was rude, which it isn’t, it can be an important safety concern
It can’t be safety concern, comercial airplanes already fly with an lenormous margin of fuel, it is probably to allow the company to reduce this margin since they know the exact value and it is not an approximation that would always consider the worst case.
This will probably mean that airplanes would take off with less fuel average that can reduce the safety of the fly by almost nothing and reduce a little the cost for the company.
It should not increase the safety of the fly because it is already too high related to fuel.
If you don’t understand planes, the location of the weight matters at least as much, if not more, than the amount of weight. Having a bunch of really heavy people at the back of the plan can absolutely be a safety issue. It doesn’t matter if the plan isn’t anywhere near the max takeoff weight.
But this is an already fixed issues, no airplane crash happened recently because a chubby guy on the first seat, the average is already being used without any risk to passengers.
Again, commercial airplanes are already too safe to any of your suggestions make an actual difference, and if it could actually make a difference Europe agencies and FAA would have already emmited alerts related to this (not an imperialist issue but they are financially attached to boeing and airbus so they usually push the standards further), and a random ass company would not be the leader of this safety standard.

Humans not able to battle climate change, because they can’t admit their weight.
