"Yes. London to Istanbul would be another 10k miles."

No. AA awards permit connections in both zones of travel (subject to published through-fare routing rules). However, since AA awards do not permit stopovers outside of North America, an extra 10K miles would be required for LON-IST if one stayed in LON for 24 hours or more.
