IAD isn't slot controlled so anyone is free to enter the market if they choose. Other airlines choose not to enter the market and are unwilling to compete.

DCA slots are federally regulated so of course it will treated differently. It's unlikely a merger would go through without AA giving up a number of slots to other carriers
