That's an honest question, not trolling you. I asked the same thing at least twice earlier, but nobody has answered me. I've searched a lot and haven't seen any credible example of someone buying a consolidator fare (as listed in the fare rules) and then being credited by fare instead of distance. And the question of what you would do if that happened is a tough one, so knowing whether it actually does happen is at least moderately important. So that's why I'm asking.
I believe I was referring to this thread:
When do Citi ThankYou point bookings count as AA "special fare"?
Not sure if the thread has a specific example of someone who purchased a bulk fare and was not credited as such. But there appears to be an instance where the outbound portion of a ticket credited as fare and the return portion credited as distance.
