I told her that this is stated nowhere in the description of lounge benefits for oneworld sapphire members. She claimed she had worked there for a long time and that is how it always has been. After some argument she just let us in as an "exception." Who is right here?
There is a link in the wikipost at the top of this page to oneworld lounge access rules, and there's a summary in the wikipost as well. In part:

Emerald and Sapphire members may invite one guest to join them in the lounge. The guest must also be travelling on a flight operated and marketed by a oneworld carrier.
