Correct, when I scanned my BP, it said something like "Wrong Airside" thus I had to sneak through to get to F. I believe this is an airport restriction as TSA does not care about where you are departing from.
Apparently, you're supposed to get a pass (which they don't give out anymore):

If you really want to get thru I guess you can buy a refundable ticket and cancel it. Though that may be against some airline coc too.
