I mean, imo we should all collectively decide to deboard from in to out, not row by row. Makes way more sense, since two columns can stand up and grab their bags from the overhead, then two whole columns just walk off the plane. As it is, literally the whole plane is blocked from exiting by every single row as they stand there struggling to get their bags free.
If you have a kid with you, or some other circumstance like that, sure, take them with you. But for everyone else deplaning by column makes a ton more sense.
Sounds great. They could just turn the lights on one column at at time as a signaling strategy. Of course it doesn't solve the God forsaken cursed chaos that is baggage in an overhead further back than one's seat. That is like a three body level type of conundrum.
I'll die on this hill: overhead compartments should have dividers and sections assigned to seats. This would solve a number of problems, including oversized bags (it must fit in the section assigned to you) and the problem you describe.
If that happens, you just wait in your row until the plane is empty.
Ah yes, collective decision making, so easy, especially with strangers.
So many problems in this world would be solved if only we could just get everyone all together to do .
I know, I know, it's a pipe dream. Doesn't stop me from fantisizing each time I'm on a plane.
