Because frankly, like in most households, there is very little justification for each spouse to hold a platinum card and there is ZERO reason to believe because I got the card and they do not, that I won't disturb your experience but they will. Absurd. Children? Yes. Completely logical and justifiable argument for not allowing them. Not allowing 2, 3, + guests? Yes. Completely justifiable because you do not want people bringing in mobs to crowd the place. Arguing that a cardmember is special but allowing their spouse or adult friend they are traveling with in will create "ruin the experience" in frankly absurd. This whole, I expect my own private lounge because I have a mass market credit card is just nonsense.
