>so everybody can get undressed
Wait what? What are you removing?
Flying in the US this week I removed nothing but a winter coat. Everything went on as normal, nothing out of bags, jut coat off.

Probably the same thing as you, but lost in translation. Removing jackets, maybe shoes, winter coats, hoodies etc.
Not undressed in the "everything but your underwear" sense.
Exactly. Plus belts, watches, removing phone/wallet/headphones from your pockets etc. And taking Laptop OUT of your luggage onto separate trays, your liquids into a clear plastic bag, etc. Very often, during that process, the staff members recognize people having liquid containers with more than 100ml capacity (shampoo, hair gel, etc.) and can tell the people that they can't take it aboard etc. I happen to fly frequently to what are busy tourist destinations, and especially older people seem to be completely unaware of any regulations what you can and can't carry along - even though those regulation have been in place for 20+ years. That is very time intensive.
I usually have to remove my jacket, and always the belt
The belt must be removed so that the buckle will not trigger the metal detector.
Belts with plastic buckles are normally OK without having to remove them.
