Last time we had a layover TPE-BKK-HKT, in a 20hr overnight layover in BKK, with Thai airlines. They did check the bags through to HKT. We didn't have to take the bags out at BKK.

We stored bags at a LHR storage store, at 12.5 lbs/ea, rather than dragging them to hotel in London. But wondering if the AC checkin agent is correct that AC never checks bags through in an overnight layover?
Hope not as I plan doing that exact thing on a YYZ-TPE-CNX flight that entails an overnight in Taipei.

Never had a problem with other airlines doing this (EVA for one)
