Only a third of the lounge on the F side left when the flight was called, rest must have been OWE on other flights that day.
Sadly no chance of a DM/F only lounge in LHR though
LHR is quite a different ballgame though. In HKG even if the guests of the Pier/Wing F are OWE, most likely they're on a CX/KA flight.
In LHR I feel like at least 1/2 of the CX lounge's guests are flying on other OW airlines. It's just a no-brainer choice compared to the other OW lounges in T3.
Here's where airlines should really be giving out lounge invitations to their own lounge when checking in to their flight...
Sadly, once people find out the CX lounge is by far superior, there's no rules stopping you from getting in as long as youre OWS/E
