He said

" If the airport is busy then all the manned desks are for foreign passports and there are no manned desks for Thai passport holders,"  and continues " when this happens there is no option to use the Thai line with a foreign passport."

"

 

It seems a clear and understandable comment.

Well not to me if thai passport lanes are not manned whats the point in joining a queue at an un manned desk?

I think you need to read the post again.  It says that there is no option (i.e. no point) to use the Thai passport lines because they are not manned.  You seem to have inserted a non-existent "but" before "to use" which reverses the meaning.

 

The post is saying the opposite of what you seem to think it is saying.

What part of  "there is no option to use the Thai line"  are you having difficulty understanding?

In theory maybe, in practice it has been my experience that they encourage "family" to stay together.

They do exactly the same in London too and state again that families stay together and not split up.

Same in Australia.

At DM I was told to go with my wife by the IO "managing" the queue but when I got to the front of the queue the IO wasn't happy but when I explained he did reluctantly stamp me in.

 

I've also had a problem at Swampy since they installed the auto gates for Thais.
