The situation would be similar to LAX (also a UA hub, in an adjacent terminal with airside connection), where the MLL has always allowed access by UA *G.
Guess we'll see what happens but unless AC has obtained an exemption from *A, I'd expect UA *G to have access.
I'll add that a 130 pax lounge is not very large. About the same size of the E Concourse UC, which is perenially overcrowded.
