How much cheaper is routing through CLT and doesnt that mean a double connect out of MXP? MXP-???-CLT?

I'd lean towards MXP-JFK-LAX at this point.
About $300 more via JFK or MIA than CLT.

If I choose to fly from Milan I'd have to do MXP-LHR-CLT-LAX otherwise I can fly FCO-CLT-LAX

The reason why I'm tempted by a layover on the east coast it's because I'd get between 20-70 tier points more compared to a direct from LHR.
