Read my post. I said the inconsistency is infuriating, not the act of showing ID.
If this is truly about preventing fraudulent access to the clubs, then every club should be enforcing ID checks on all arriving guests. But clearly that is not the case in practice.
The most likely explanations in my mind are inconsistent or incomplete messaging to front line club staff, or lack of oversight of said staff who then make it up as they go. Either way it reflects badly on AA management.
