IMHO, this restriction were introduced because XONEWCX didn't have the upper limit of the number of segments at that time.
I got over 20 segments DONEWC3 issued at that era.

For XONEX, I included HKG-NRT-HKG-NRT-HKG in my DONE3 in 2009.
Therefore, this city pair restriction has been introduced after that for XONEX.

You are of course correct, I must have been thinking of global explorer which has had this provision for many years before oneworld explorers. I included more than one NRT-HKG in each direction a number of times since 2001. Appears that the change to xonex occurred in 2010. See this post:
