I'm sure there's a sensible answer, but it eludes me!!
Welcome to FlyerTalk.

In the USA, if you’re connecting international-international, or international-domestic, you are too. At London Heathrow traveling with connections at different terminals, even if remaining airside using the bus shuttles, you are as well. Etc. etc.
