That's not the case. I've had multi-airline trips booked on UA before, where it gave me some, but not all, of the OAL PNR codes. I've also had OAL-only reservations where it gave me the PNR.

Generally, it just seems that the feature works for some airlines (AC and LH seem to be consistent, but I'm sure someone will tell me of a case where it didn't work for them), and doesn't work for others (never successfully gotten Austrian or Thai).
