Thanks again
Since you're buying them as an AA-marketed flight (aka has an AA flight number), you will get 2x EQM per mile and the EQD as stated on AA.com.

The reference to the reduce earnings is only if you would have bought the ticket through JL, or bought it through AA and it had a JL flight number, not an AA flight number.
