The OP will get credit for MSY-SFO and not for SFO-LAX so long as it is credited to UA, just like I wrote above. :-:
To me, the question IS the throw-away segment. I just went through that whole thread and I don't see any discussion on the situation.

The system must keep track of the 2 boardings to perform this logic. If the OP boards at MSY but does not board at SFO, would the system:

1 - consider the single segment in the PNR no show and award no miles?
2 - award only the MSY-SFO miles?
3 - award the PNR's MSY-LAX miles?
