Your understanding is wrong. "Marketed by AA" means nothing else than "booked under AA flight number". BXP1 for instance requires that the ticket is issued on AA ticket, which means the ticket has to 001.

That I cannot comment on. I don't know what the agreements are in place between the Atlantic JV partners. I'm just giving a data points and it certainly is possible for AA to take over a BA or IB ticket. I wouldn't say the agents who have the knowledge to do it are noobies, so I assume they know the rules in place.
