In rare cases, big backpacks are needed for medical reasons. I used to have to carry a very heavy cooler backpack with special food for my daughter. It was terrible all around - her having to eat cold food while others enjoyed pizza and burgers - me having to lug the thing all day with cool packs creating moisture between it and my back. But I was always careful with it and never hit anyone. I only mention it, because there can be some rare cases where it is a necessity.
Thank goodness she can eat all foods now and that phase of our life is over - you take for granted the ability to travel and just buy the food you need, until you can't.
Of course there are exceptions. But even with that, some people don't seem to realize that their megabackpack is getting in others spaces and hitting them. There seems to be no awareness of other's around them. I have been hit so many times I'm starting to push back. And I don't stand too close either. I don't like to be too close to others personal space. I'm glad you are able to travel differently now
