Some AS outstations (PVR) still print these for all boarding passes. Most permanent ticket counter print on the flimsy thermal paper style ones. Is MCO a shared ticket counter by any chance?
ETA: Tickets kicked over to another airline for IRROPs rebooking will sometimes be printed on card stock (particularly pmVX gate printers, not sure if their gate printed regular BPs are still on card stock)
