"Direct" flights

I just booked a flight from LAX to CDG via IAH and FRA. I noticed that mileage it is saying I will receive for the LAX-IAH-FRA will be 5,785 miles (i.e. as if I flew LAX-FRA direct) versus the 6,368mi actually flown (LAX-IAH-FRA).

Has anyone had any luck calling CO to get the full credit for the EQMs after the fact? I know UA has been known to do this from time to time
