Not to detract from your point but you're referring to the Schengen Zone specifically. There are EU countries opted out (UK) and non-EU countries participating (e.g. Switzerland, Norway and Iceland).

Not to nitpick, but the UK opted out of the EU entirely, not just the Schengen Zone.

Which is irrelevant to this topic. The UK still is in the EU and has never been in the Schengen Zone, which is the point here.
