If I’m traveling without a carry on, yes, I wait until the whole line is clear before I board.
If I have a carry-on, I line up to board as soon as my zone is called. Too many times I boarded and found some assholes sitting all the way in the back have put their carry ons above my seats so they don’t have to drag it, and I have to walk past my seat and be an asshole myself by putting my carry on above a seat that’s not mine, wait until there’s a break in boarding so I can make my way back to my seat, and wait for everyone to deboard before I can go back and grab my carry on.
If you’re certain it belongs to someone sitting half an airplane away, take it down and leave it in the aisle. When the attendants come by, just shrug and say it’s not yours.
As much as I’d like to imagine myself doing that, you’re suggesting I take a bag out and put it on the floor (not knowing which one belongs to the asshole in question) and put mine in its place, and leave it in the isle where everyone behind me witnessing me doing it will be unable to finish boarding?

I thought most airlines won’t allow a carry-on that won’t fit under your seat?
No that’s the personal item a small bag that fits under the seat. A carry on is a slightly larger bag that goes in the overhead bin
Oh! I carry a giant Camelbak, so it does double duty I guess.

I imagine I’d be kicked off the plane…
