Virgin Atlantic LAX lounge adds Priority Pass, with $35pp upcharge

VS has a new proposition with its new VS LAX lounge: Pay $35 per person per visit on top of your PP membership, and it comes with full VS lounge access(the full bar, a la carte menu, etc) instead of the 'lite' version of some light snacks and non-alcoholic drinks.

I don't know what to think about this - on the one hand, it feels like a slippery slope to PP eventually shifting to a discount lounge access option where you have to pay a fee to enter more and more lounges. On the other, there is absolutely no way the VS Clubhouse would ever accept just PP and provide the full lounge experience without PP seriously increasing their payout (and likely becoming too expensive for cards to offer unlimited PP access).

Thoughts?
