I don;t want to start a controversy, but there is something about overt discrimination that makes it better than covert, like profiling, yet denying profiling.

Code sharing is something entirely different. Two member of an alliance don't have to code-share.
I suspect, what the OP was asking was that Saudia is not showing up on the list of airline partners.
By definition all members of an alliance are partners. This raises the question, can you earn Medallion Qualifying miles on Saudia? If yes, it must be a DL partner. Then why isn't it showing up on the list or airline partners.
