Rebooking was granted after agent checking that award seats were available and obtaining authorisation to rebook from back-office/supervisor (or whoever the agent asked). Kudos to M&M.
Seats were available: BA would also rebook in that (and the OP's) situation - and the BA agent wouldn't even need to get authorization; they could just do it.

OP; interesting that AA said they would full refund if was their own ticket: that isn't the published policy I found when researching earlier. Pity.
