I'll get on a transatlantic plane without carry-on luggage when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

(Or when they pay me the full replacement price of my checked luggage when I board. On the unlikely chance I ever see it again, and on time too, I'll gladly refund the money... minus a modest handling charge. AND they must have at least three decent full-length novels in the passenger cabin for me, as that's how many I'll need.)

As for the first, that'd be my guess as well, but I am not sure. Airlines hate carry-on luggage. (My theory is that they cannot STAND the idea that, at the other end of the flight, the customer still has ANY of his personal belongings!)

It's because they Hate Freedom.
