I think, but 100% sure, that AA needs a published fare before it can sell.
Interesting. Anything on google flights or on aa.com forces either on QF flight from BNE to LAX or on AA codeshare BNE-SYD and then AA metal SYD-LAX

Might be a published fare issue or might be a restriction on the codeshare that has a codeshare number but not actually codesharing.

For example, from a quick look at the fare rules on ExpertFlyer, at least one of the BNE-LAX fares sold by AA needs:

THE FARE COMPONENT MUST INCLUDE TRAVEL VIA EACH
TRANSPACIFIC SECTOR ON
ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING
ANY AA FLIGHT OPERATED BY AA

So, the codeshare flight wouldn't qualify.
