I have recently noticed that AA has done a much better job of policing boarding zones and carry-ons alike. Grab a few scammer-sized carryons from those in the first 1-3 boarding groups and it sends a quick message down the line.
The root cause of the carry-on madness is the airlines charging for checked bags.
