Decades ago, I was stuck in an Italian airport because they didn't like my camera's batteries (I had spent the day shooting images of the area for a TV program). I didn't speak Italian, they didn't speak any of my languages. We wasted an hour on this.
Customs can be weird sometimes. It's nothing new.
