My point was more on departures - if most international travel originating out of DEN is DEN-other UA hub-international destination, then people accessing it as their starting point would also have logistical issues doing so. Namely, it goes to the point that any DEN PL as of now would be highly underutilized and probably not worth the upfront capex + the ongoing cost of servicing the lounge.
