I suppose by limiting cross-use of lounges to those with status, it's a form of capacity control. Nothing's more irritating then a full lounge.

I agree, but I also feel that if we use the same argument, passengers admitted by tier status should also be limited to lounges operated by the departing carriers, the lounges where they have the tier status, or the designated lounges.
