Or, it brings up the need to reinforce training - staff is not supposed to accept photos of IDs.

Sure, in this case, after just a little bit of delay for the discussion, scanning an image worked. The next person to try it will have a poor picture of the barcode or a scratch on their phone screen or a bad glare or any of a number of things that will prevent the scan from working. While the attendant is attempting to scan the image off the screen others will be waiting to be let in. Better to just carry the ID as you are supposed to when you want to use the amenities.
