4. the folks at The Club MCO were misinformed; they said i simply needed to take the train to the "right" hand side, and someone made me think this would drop me at a different point.

I still dont understand the issue.

International arriving passengers had to be screened SOMEWHERE before boarding their flights to Orlando.

Since everyone has had some level of security checks, why are we all being forced out into the open area of the airport.

These folks have now cleared customs, and immigration.

What other kind of threat would anyone pose to boarding a domestic flight

In addition, a better question might be:

What would potentially stop an "internationally arriving passenger" from boarding a domestic flight (e.g., doesnt SWA fly out of that side of Terminal A), for example, in the terminal that contains The Club at MCO????

maybe i am missing something as I dont know what happens to passengers in that area after going thru customs and immigration, but we do seem to all be dumped out to same trains and/or main non-sterile area of the airport

wouldnt the reasoning for NOT allowing me to cross over to the other spoke of side A apply to anyone that would want to take a domestic flight from The Club at MCO side ???
