There is a nuance on that one. While al Mourjan is listed as an excluded lounge (and I really don't know what Qatar ties itself in all these knots), nevertheless the lounge is open to
oneworld departures from DOH, so long as the passenger is in Business or First. The exclusion is therefore on status travellers, but not on cabin. So a GGL flying Qatar economy isn't welcome, but a Blue travelling BA CW is allowed entry. So they have a Qatar specific policy, rather than adopting the usual
oneworld norms.
Same rules at their lounge in London and Paris. There are other, not-so-good lounges in DOH for status passengers travelling
oneworld.
