OneWorld Emerald cards

Just received my first of their new cards - with what looks like an emerald flying saucer hovering under our oneworld! Kind of subtle, befitting BA/CX, but conjures up all sorts of possible images. Card came with the letter allowing use of first class lounges, check-in etc. Added was the statement that lounge entry would be through swiping the new card. That may well be an effective way of refusing entry to any who do not have same-day flights, and keeping count of our usage.

Shall edit, rather than post a reply, as arturo's wit should definitely stand at the close of this forum. Each OneWorld airline issues its own card, embossed with the emerald flying saucer. Maybe I am just reporting the antipodean enthusiasm for swiping - in lounges and beyond!
