It is a bit more complicated than that. There is currently parity in the AA and US systems for counting MM. Both use BIS miles only.
Except it's stated upthread that US does not even credit BIS miles on partner metal for MM proposes, whereas AA does. So while the disparity is nowhere near what it would have been had AA still credited all sources of miles, there is still slight disparity.
