True to an extent but *G get into the SEN lounge (which is technically a F lounge) or the Business lounge while LH C passengers can only use the Business lounge. *G can also check-in at LH F desks, because SEN (100k) is the lowest *G tier at LH. The SEN lounges are pretty much the only ones you can't get into with a paid lounge membership because they're not C lounges. SQ at SIN are really in a class of their own when it comes to *G lounge access.

...But if you're PPS you're likely buying premium fares anyway so the benefits of being PPS are effectively nullified. It's a vicious but apparently effective system!
