Answer 1

It’s not really what you think it is. It’s a way for the crew to make sure all the passengers are awake and aware the plane is landing. Also the people that don’t put their tray table away, and seat up for landing are also the same people that are horrible in emergency situations. I dunno if the flight attendants keep track, but I certainly do.
