I don't know whether the airlines are behind this. After all, what would
they have to gain?

Consider the fact that airline passengers must now submit to long
lines for degrading security inspections, wait for protracted periods
to meet airline schedules, and be treated like cattle. Contrast that
with the corporate or charter biz-jet GA experience. I would expect
airlines to fear loosing high paying business class customers to the
more flexible, more comfortable and less invasive GA fleet.
