UA award booking, change questions / issues / routing / excursionist problems / help

Apologies if I'm incorrectly using this thread, but I have two questions related to the topics here --

1. According to the newest award redemption rules, there is no more "piecing together" segments you can find on *A partner carriers to create a one-way itinerary, is that right? If you put in the O/D and it doesn't show a possible connecting itinerary or the routing/carrier you wanted, there is no way to create it manually even if you can see the segments individually, is that correct? (for the same overall redemption cost you wanted) Not even phone agents will do this?

2. Does UA.com suffer from any "hidden" award availability that you still have to call in for? Or in return for restricting us with #1, is UA.com showing everything that you can possibly book now? Singapore shows, Turkish shows, and there is no glitchy inventory that requires calling in or being fooled into thinking you were searching everything possible?

Thanks a lot!
