Hmmm I don't really follow you here. Lounge access is indeed a Plat benefit and it is quite well consistently applied. Sofitel Berlin Kurfurstendam is the only exception I have in mind and one case doesn't make it an inconsistent benefit. There are many LCAH benefits that are applied inconsistently but not this one IMO.
