And Canada is "international" for lounge access purposes as far as the RCC is concerned.
If you're being that literal, only intra-country non-US itineraries would fall under this restriction.. for example flying MUC-FRA on LH. FRA-CDG on LH is most definitely international since you're going from one nation to another.
Then again, I think you're reading too much into this.
