Question Ease of Access of oneWORLD louges for SG & WP when not on that carrier?

In this thread: "Trip Report – QF5….hang on, QF5D…. err, I mean QF8005!", I posted a tip re access to other oneWORLD lounges for SG's and WP's:
as a oneWORLD sapphire you could have accessed the CX lounge nr GT 42
Yesterday we (myself & mrs serfty) attended this lounge in SIN before catching my QF flight back to MEL. While I did gain entry, it was not without a "suggestion" that I was at the wrong place. I was pleasantly persistant, advising I would like to use this lounge.

While the Lounge staff were polite at all times, I had the impression they would have preferred I was not there.

The last time I did this was as an Emerald in HKG, back in 2000 (no guest) and the staff could not have been more pleasant.

Have any of you Sapphires or Emeralds out there any recent experience with doing this type of thing?
