I'd rather have a really good sandwich and a pot of tea than BA's tortured amuse-gueule offerings.
I'm not sure I'm following? The whole lounge menu
is simpler/faster options including club sandwich, burger, usually a curry, often a pasta, a salad, etc. So for instance, you currently have three different sandwich/lunch options. If anything, my sense is that the lounge menu focuses too much of the attention compared to - ultimately - limited choice for the main menu.

I don't want to put words into KARFA'smouth, but I suspect what he means is that all the items that you are mentioning here are items that are actually from the GF menu. So of course, they are available to you in the CCR, no problem, but they don't say much about CCR food quality since they are not part of the CCR own menu in the first place.
It reminds me of some Hollywood film where parents take their kid to a posh restaurant with exquisite food but all one of the children wants is a Big Mac. The maitre d'hôtel is wholly sympathetic as he fully gets that not everyone wants fancy food every day, and he sends one of his guys pick up a Big Mac at the nearby McDonald's and serves it to the delighted young lad. It's all great but of course, it would not make sense to use the Big Mac as a yardstick of how good the restaurant's food is as it is not theirs in the first place.
