Looks like they're considering expanding it in the US...

Or they think that what they're doing is enough to handle the threat and are trying to balance an outright ban with acting responsibly on current info they possess? Perhaps the explosives screening at the listed airports is especially low tech/bad or something? Not really sure.
Perhaps they'll come out with an all up ban soon. I believe I read somewhere that some of the people that decide these things argued for one.
