Note this is new wording - previously paragraph 4(h) referred to "3.1.3 and 3.2.3" not "FL.E.3.A and E.3.B"
So it looks like AA will still refuse Europe-Middle East flights on backtracking itineraries

Checking today in ExpertFlyer and...
AA's version of the rules now matches all the other airlines' rules
(except for MH which has still not done the August update, and LA which still has last year's version of the rules)
I wonder how that happened
