I'm sorry to disappoint you but the treatment you received has nothing to do with Asia being the future or your being considered a minor Deity. It's simply because flights from the UK are considered unimportant and park at a remote apron position.

And they obviously didn't want you to enter Germany since the upper floor of the MUC First Class Lounge is in no man's land and definitely not in Germany. Have you ever been to an airport lounge where you have to surrender your passport to enter?
