As I think more about it I think all of UAs BOH (kitchen, storage, etc) for the current club is on the E end of the club... Perhaps BOH can be shared between two clubs but especially for a potentially sub-10 year investment reconfiguring that may not make sense relative to just reskinning the DL club and operating it as a second key (either full club or some variation on grab&go) despite higher staffing costs (agents, bartenders, etc... unless they make it all self serve and send you to the "real" club for help and alcohol [Emphasis added.]
BOH = back of house (restaurant terminology)

My early Sunday evening visit to the Terminal 2, Concourses E & F ("Gate F8") United Club near the beginning of July was very crowded.

I flew out of the E Gates, which are not numbered in strict numerical order, but only within the odd or even sides of the concourse, which can be confusing to a newcomer.
