The issue is that there are some SEs who demand the coddling.
Take a concierge out for drinks sometime and ask for stories.
I totally appreciate that sometimes an escort is necessary. But I've had one in several airports and not only has it slowed me down, but it's also meant other SEs get the "there are none available" comment if they need one.
I had an extremely bad issue in SFO once, and actually needed an agent to meet me landside, but the concierge was busy walking an SE to their UA gate in T3.
I couldn't clear security because I had no way of getting a BP, but someone else was monopolizing the concierge for an airside walk.
Some SEMMs demand a concierge escort onto the plane ahead of everyone else, every flight. They make concierges think this is desired or required, and then they start doing it more, which hurts those of us who only request assistance when it's necessary.
