I mean they couldn't get anything done the first few days obviously, but after the survivors were found that's still several thousand ghosts with unfinished business that need to be taken care of. Do you think their tech in 2001 was enough to capture several thousand ghosts at once, or do you think it took years of long tedious Ghostbustin' to bring the ghosts of 9/11 to rest? Did Zak Bagans help any?

Mostly pseudo-random.
Ghosts aren't real buddy. The Ghostbusters are just a CIA psyop designed to monitor individual citizens prone to the hallucinogenic drugs they put in the water supply.

The Ghostbusters lucked out in 1984, to hit a period of peak demand for busting. As established in the first film, if a Twinkie represents the normal amount of ghostly activity, the amount they experienced was equivalent to a 35-foot long snack. That’s why, at the start of Ghostbusters 2, they were broke and reduced to appearing at children’s parties.

In other words, they went out of business way before 9/11.

Why would there be any ghosts after 9/11? The martyrs went directly to heaven

unfortunately ghosts aren't bound by gravity so they just get left behind in space where earth happened to be at the time of death

the ghosts that the ghostbusters bust are actually from ancient lost civilizations whose ghosts roam the cosmos

The thing was is the ghosts were the easiest thing to clean up since the ghost/sqft amount was so high.

One ghost trap being thrown into the area could hoover up at least a half dozen ghosts without even busting out the proton pack.

Does that really track though? Ghostbuster canon supports the idea that ghosts can be mobile as evidenced by the Titanic arriving in New York in Ghostbusters 2, even though it sank more than a thousand miles away.

At the very last, we could expect the passengers on the planes to appear at their destination airports haunting the baggage claim.

Is there an aging process to ghosts? Like, is it the same ghost from the moment they die, or do they change over like 100 years of haunting?

They don't change, they fade out. That's why we aren't completely covered in ghosts of cavemen. You'd have to be a pretty aggrieved and spiritually powerful caveman to still be around as a ghost now.

So there's a measurable energy to ghosts based on longevity? Is this energy predictable? Or does it vary based on the ghost and/or circumstances?

Didn't the ghost busters go into towers on 9/11 to bust a particularly powerful phantasm? You know, the dead pilot that kept projecting illusionary planes?
