Default TSA procedures = More light aviation customers?

I am wondering if more people will get into light planes? Purchase at
entry levels, rentals, maybe "Net Jet" or "eCar" type rental clubs for
light planes and light twins? People who can avoid the controversial
new stuff - not to mention the radiation of the scanners and the whole
time delay - might mean more light plane buyers.

After all, if delays at both ends will add a couple hours to the fight
each way, it might be worth it to get in your own plane, or a rental
plane, and have the same amount of time actually spent on the journey,
but all the time being in the air with less inconvenience on the
ground.
