keeping lounge access for SL is quite fair. i was lured from GR to SL because of lounge access. then got lured to GO (don't really know how that happened) ... and now to DM!
This is exactly my experience. I was quite happily flying AA most of my life until a decade ago AA couldn't find a space for me, so I was put on CX instead, happened twice in the same year, and then CX sent me this SL card that I realized has lounge access. As you said, the rest is history and now I'm DM with CX.
