There is nothing at all wrong with that!!
It is like ordering a 3-course meal at a restaurant and then skipping dessert !
Agreed, I see Ex-EU as a low problem, but the use of forged cards and attempted deception is more serious. What I was trying to say was that people were (allegedly) receiving threats of forfeited miles/TP's for doing Ex-EU, yet blatant attempts at deception with forged cards etc don't appear to be treated more seriously, with only a slapped wrist at the lounge entry. There's little disincentive, though I'm happy to be proved wrong.
