I've seen UA employees in the ORD lounges a few times recently, perhaps the new "food" offerings are serving as a meal.

My money is on it seemed like a good idea since DL was doing it, so little thought was given to the decision. I do appreciate the year in advance notice, to be fair.
DL does not require a same-day boarding pass. I'm still a DL lounge member and use their ORD lounge when I'm not flying int'l on UA. (And since DL's recent improvements to beer and wine offerings, I may be using it more now even when flying UA int'l.)
