For some reason a lot of BLP policy is like that: "here we have the same policy we use for everything else, but we really mean it this time". This never works, of course.I think that's an overstatement - it sometimes doesn't work, which is quite distinct from "never works".
"The policy doesn't work" doesn't mean that all BLPs are bad, it just means that they are *as* bad as they would have been without the policy. The cases you refer to as it "working" are cases where other policies work and these polices provide no extra benefit.
