I don’t even think the STE+ members get access. Per VS (https://flywith.virginatlantic.com/gb/en/upper-class-cabin-and-seats/clubhouse-airport-lounge/london-heathrow-clubhouse.html), you’d get access when travelling on VS or DL in VS Premium (and DL equivalent) as a Flying Blue member. Whilst VS Gold gives you STE+, STE+ != VS Gold.
So, if you took this status match, you’d only get Clubhouse access by my reading by virtue of being Flying Blue *and* travelling Premium.
As a VS Gold, I can access Clubhouse with a guest in any bucket and cabin. That’s the difference.
And, no, VS won’t match Flying Blue to VSFC.
