If it's a federal policy, I'm confused as to why it would differ between airports?

I have a 12-hour layover (10 pm to 10 am) at HND and am obviously concerned.

Has anyone first-hand experience with an overnight layover at HND recently?
There are plenty of experiences reported of being in Haneda for overnight transits. No issues there in that. The Live and Let's Fly blog post probably the one that got the most wide attention.
