Special rules didn’t seem to have been put into place for that earlier meeting.

The hotel that hosted it didn’t know or care if I was an attendee. The immigration people at DXB didn’t either. There probably would have been no way for either of them to find that out. Assuming they wanted to. Which they didn’t AFAICT.

How those organisations choose to run their meetings is an entirely different issue.
