I think that hillrider's post is about buying AA codes for travel in WT+.
Yes, you read it correctly. AA*/BA is industry-standard to describe an AA-coded flight operated by BA (codeshare). www.aa.com as an agent for BA will sell you all of BA's published fares (just like Expedia or any other OTA would); I was referring to W-cabin BA flights marketed by AA (and sold as AA*/BA).

Yes.
