Yes, that is true, however you need to be there to witness the confusion, they also mix up the White & Red Wine glasses & one wonders what the Staff think the Champagne Flutes are for …..

I suppose that is true. I have evaded LH F and in turn the F lounges for the last year, so I haven't personally witnessed the changes discussed here.
Perhaps the flutes could be used to serve nuts or olives?

There is this great new invention called headphones now, it works wonders for any loud ipad/phones etc. As usual, this comes down to parenting, it is perhaps the same parents we see sometimes in public spaces including lounges taking calls on their loudspeakers.

so, I think the kids area is great, but only for smaller ones. Mine are constantly on the move between the area and where my wife and I would sit and it‘s tough to police them properly. Still, it‘s better than nothing (like FCLA). In any case, I avoid long stays with the kids in the FCT (or any lounge for that matter), it’s just not the right place for them. And yes, disturbing others beyond the absolutely unavoidable shows bad parenting and there is plenty (as there are rude adults).

Question for native speakers of German: "Salat mit Sepia and Dinkel Salad."

Is this just representative of their lack of attention to detail (like the "January Special" menu card which looks like a flyer I found in my pocket at age 20 the day after a night of clubbing of which I only have shady memories)? Or am I missing something?

They just put the carriage return in the wrong place. "Salad" should be at the start of the next line.

Yes, but "Sepia" isn't proper, either. That's the biological name but not a culinary term. Should be Tintenfisch. Their lack of attention to detail is at odds with first class unless our point of reference is first class at DB.

The intern and deepl are cooking up the menu

If it's specifically cuttlefish and not generic squid then Sepia is correct.
