So, you're pulled over on the highway and the police officer asks for your
license and registration. What do you do?

I hand it to him. I fail to see the relevance. In one case, an official is
trying to extend their authority beyond that granted him. In the other, an
official is simply doing their job, exercising authority granted him.

But even the police officer does not have the authority to keep your
driver's license, not even at a traffic stop never mind at an airport.
