Actually, the only obligation the airline has is to give a refund. They have no obligation, whatsoever, to make any flight changes no matter what schedule changes have taken place. In most accounts here, they have been willing to do this, but the requirement is not there in any way.

Exactly. Whether the change is large or small, AA have no obligation to change your flight.

Definitely best not to imply absolutes where none exist.

Cheers.
