The simple issue is that this is a necessary precondition to sterile transit.

I am prepared to wager that AC is going to set up sterile transit from US to International and v.v. They will probably use the old upstairs PIL as a transit area, with airside bus connection to the International area of T1.

But this means that you cannot allow International bound passengers to co-mingle with domestic passengers. (Which means, I am afraid, that the MLL will close to GX flights when that happens.)
