Why are bags at baggage claim almost always back side up?
I am sitting at baggage claim waiting for my bag and noticed that almost all "normal" suitcases (not duffel bags, or overly large hard shells with 4 wheels) are almost always arriving on the baggage carousel with their back side facing up. Why is that? That's normally the soft side of the suitcase so if someone had something fragile packed on top, it would probably break.
