I want to set up an EF alert for the earlier flights, but I don't have confidence that EF will show the availability since it doesn't see the available space on the evening flight. I am EXP (though I don't think that matters here since I can see the availability on aa.com even if not logged in).

You can try yourself to see the issue - June 1 LHR-CDG
For the times when EF is returning false negatives for BA flights, https://rewardflightfinder.com is an alternative (although its level of detail only goes down to days rather than specific flights). It's returning a positive for 1 June, which confirms that EF is returning false negatives at the moment for that day, given that ba.com is being very specific that there is availability on that evening flight.
