AA does not offer 50% miles for certain fare classes. The only caveat is that O (Oscar) class fares between North and Latin America arn no miles. (Sic: ** Tickets between North America and Latin America booked in O are not eligible.)
But some people do occasionally get confused between Elite-Qualifying Miles, EQ Points and Redeemable (such as bonus, etc.) miles.

(Of course, one could also say that the ammenities in first class are simple as well. The pretzels and plastic cups up front never get old.
