I’m taking this from things like OMAAT given he was walking with Ben Smith to the lounge he presumably had a chance to discuss their future plans.
In the future they’re open to expanding entry requirements if the lounge isn’t overcrowded, but they’d rather start with restrictive criteria and then expand it, rather than the other way around.

Can anyone here who has been say it's similar to any other lounges?
Looks unreal. Surprised that they left SE's out of it
