Well, if it was the 77W I'd be more interested, but of course YMMV. Depending on which J products you've flown with partners, you could find the 772 lie flats anywhere from excellent to meh (my $0.02 re hard product: QSuite>>AA 77W J>AA772 non-Zodiac>CX J>QR "regular" J>AA 772 Zodiac/AA788/9>BA Club World). Also, you'll get the domestic soft product, so that's sort of a downer. TBH I'd be more concerned about adding the potential for a delay/misconnect by adding another leg (and going through MIA) than hanging out in DFW. But of course YMMV.
