The potential for others having a similar incident is justification in my eyes. I guess it comes down to wether one wants to be proactive or reactive when a similar situation arises. If there hadn't been an airport close enough, you risk the passenger dieing before they can get medical help. The woman could have been on some transatlantic flight and died.

I've got no stake in this and I'd be easily satisfied by anything anyone can show me that says being in the same airplane as an open bag of peanuts is an issue for even a tiny percentage of the population. Nobody has done that yet. Not even close.
I've got allergies myself. I can appreciate the sentiment, but it just doesn't seem to be based in reality.

No disrespect but you're a hard person to satisfy. All it takes is one Anaphylactic shock during a flight to create a huge problem. And it doesn't have to happen on a mass scale. There's the cost to the airline for having to make an unscheduled stop over, and all the compensation/vouchers they will have to give other passengers for the inconveinece and trouble - not mention missed conections and all.
