I don't know of any airline employee who would refuse to let someone remove something from a bag that is one pound overweight. Most airline personnel are not looking for an argument or confrontation. They want to make things easier for themselves also, so, why refuse to let a passenger travel if their luggage is slightly overweight? The options are generally A) pay the overweight charge or B) remove something.
