Doesn't it have something to do with the invasiveness of the search, i.e. a pat-down only needs "reasonable suspicion" while going through the pockets requires "probable cause"?

CB: I don't think the 4th Amendment differentiates types of searches. It just says searches require a warrant or probable cause.
