This has been merged into the general B6+AA thread for member convenience.
As others have speculated, this move could be accomplished in a number of ways, including B6 using the Club Europe layout for the forward cabin, etc. etc. I do wonder specifically who Arpey is implicating when he says "Arpey said some other alliance CEOs had expressed their desire to speak to JetBlue."
I'll bet there are quite a few of us who would enjoy earning EQM and having some privileges, not to mention nonstop flight connections with NYC from destinations currently requiring stops at DFW et al.

Looks like anything is possible in this hectic aviation era. Wow, I'd never would've thought it'd be a considerable option. AS' entry into OW would've been plausible but B6?
OTOH, bringing in B6 into a more cooperative codeshare would bring certain benefits as they do have several intra-West coast routes (SEA, PDX, SLC, SMF and SFO) that could be plugged in by OW, albeit many of those are to LGB instead of LAX.
