I wonder how the whole earning rate and bonus works. It seems the partners decide how much is earned and pays UA for the miles (or some kind of settlement as things go both ways)?

Would UA jack up the rate they sell partners MP miles? Otherwise there would be more incentive for UA members to fly partner and credit to MP, right? Of course, those flyers are not what UA wants...

Could the entire Star Alliance be working on some kind of revenue data exchange and all go this way?

Definitely. I flew WN a lot less since RR 2.0. Not only it is not as fun a game, it is also pretty complicated.
