It reeks of politics and seems to have nothing to do with safety or security. The comment by border services seems especially contemptuous.

Nostalgia is bad
Nostalgia plays a part here. People's memories of the past aren't always trustworthy: a good period for one person might have been terrible for somebody else. For instance, many people are fond of early-to-mid-1990s Toronto because it was cheap and easy to find housing or artist and workshop space, but that happened partly because a devastating recession and deindustrialization destroyed local economies and put thousands, especially the working class, out of jobs. Nostalgia doesn't always see the bigger picture as it's a personal view.
