Based on the seats themselves, it's probably not worth the extra Avios. The meals in business would be a bonus, but not enough to justify the extra Avios. But if I get good lounge access in MAD, then I'll do business. Because MAD-RAK is more or less domestic (A320), am I correct in thinking that I would have access to Dali lounge?

You will actually have access to the Velázquez lounge as RAK leaves from T4S as it is a non-Schengen flight. It doesn't have anything to do with distance but rather immigration. (There are a few exceptions to this, but it's not worth going into here)
