Following that logic, taking a turn and waiting to be called up, would be the most frustrating outcome of all?

Not quite, you are still aware numbers are being called and you can equate that to progress through the wait. It would be the same if they somehow concealed all sense of forward progress through the queue.

You can still see there are fewer people left in the queue... unless it's really long and you're far in the back, but then likely wouldn't notice much of a difference either.

You mean like at the dmv? Yeah, I'd say you're probably right.
