I do notice that now BA has a disclaimer when searching for mileage redemptions that: "You can currently only make BA Miles bookings on American Airlines via our contact centres, so please call us to book.
It is temporarily not possible to do this online". But, that wasn't there before.
I've already spent 150k miles on US-Asia flights this year. Finding seats is a bit tricky, but far from impossible if you're patient. Feel free to PM me if you have any specific trips in mind.
