Interesting; it's been some time since I used DL status on VA and actually just lost DL status a couple weeks ago. But it used to say 'Partner Gold'...
In any case the FF field will make it clear you are DL status and the rest of my post will apply.
If you are in J then you get lounge access based on your ticket and your FF status is irrelevant.
