"...It's driven by greed..." Far more likely to be driven by liability insurance fees. Mind you, most club insurance covers 'guests' for injury, but not likely if said guest opts for a suit.
Events that are sanctioned by National Governing bodies are probably covered by that National Governing body's insurance. If a club decides to charge more for non-club members they'd very likely lose any further sanctioning by any National Governing body. Likely with a loss of any kind of affiliation too. And then it'd get political.
