I understand what you're saying here, and appreciate the information (helps to explain some issues I've had with TATL bookings), but UA will definitely issue single flight itineraries on partners that do not meet this standard. I've flown, for example, TG and AV itineraries that were ticketed on 016 stock under native flight number without any UA segment.
