I agree, AA is very rare to release any Longhaul U or Z class nowadays.
Hmm, don't you mean "Compton" F, sorry it's a AA forum joke

The seat itself would still be better than BA CW

Booking a one-way award YVR-JFK-LHR - Is it actually any cheaper to book it with one award/ticket vs booking YVR-JFK and then JFK-LHR separately ?
YVR-JFK-LHR would be Cat D. so, 70K J/105K F.
YVR-JFK-LHR split award would be Cat B+C so 75K J/110K F but you can add a LHR stopover and save a ex-LHR Short Euro for later use.
As HKG slang goes, "pocket it first!"
Still it is kinda expensive considering YVR-LHR non-stop itself is only 45K J
