This second try was on an ex-Europe itinerary (LHR-xHKG-xSIN-SYD-oHKG-JFK-LHR). Still no go.
FWIW, several years back I also did an xONEx which have two transit segments -- I see no issue with that and the rules as long as they are both transit -- ticketed by the AA RTW desk. Two xONEx's if I recall correctly. Haven't tried to do it since. Seem the rules are now being interpreted differently in at least some cases. May be worth pushing if ticketing via an office and it's important to you.
