Yeah, exactly. You used to be able to pay $50 with any Amex to get in. If you only needed to go a few times a year and otherwise had SC access it was perfect. They took that away a little while before COVID before giving Reserve free access.
Can't really think of any other domestic airport with a Centurion Lounge and no SC, but I'm sure someone will comment if there is one. It was also a useful option when traveling on a non-DL carrier from an airport with a Centurion Lounge.
