This is one of the real oddities of the program. By keeping membership in this secret society secret even from members (!) until it works for you the first time, they invite the eventual clogging up of the lanes with huge numbers of non-members. If they told you "you're now a member, but it won't always apply" they could then label the lanes "for members only" and cut down on confused interlopers.
