That's the absurd part.

Don't care. Someone screwed up and missed it the first time. So what? He still shouldn't have had it.

The absurdity has nothing to do with that fact that he was military, that the entire plane was military, that he was carrying an unloaded weapon, or any of the other circumstances. It's absurd that nail clippers are banned, the particulars around this instance of someone being "caught" with them are irrelevant to me.
