Pretty sure its a bored and clueless agent, or maybe he was looking at a different routing than you provided? They seem to prefer FRA for transiting and want you to route through FRA if possible, for some weird reason..
Maybe its because LH used to be a redemption partner even before AI was in Star Alliance.

Sorry to end this with a question, but how many miles did the agent want to charge you for ATH-FCO-DEL? Only ATH-DEL or ATH-FCO + FCO-DEL???
65k miles as per the star alliance chart....she was looking at the right routing, ath-fco-del in business class....
