why do you need to know who's flying?

Well, firstly to see if they're on anyone's Most Wanted list. Secondly, knowing precisely who's flying can act as a deterrant for the less-than-suicidal types as it means the odds of escaping retribution are lower. Thirdly, it prevents the "bait and switch" technique of getting a legitimate guy to buy the tickets and clear the security checks before handing the tickets/passes over to Mad Bomber #4 for boarding.
