I didn't think there were, but I don't really follow AA that closely so maybe something has changed? I'm just searching through AA.com...
Are you sure you don’t have a flight with a BA segment mixed in?
I’m not able to replicate your finding. When I search, I find Y for 80k AA + ~$80 rt or J for 150k + ~$80 rt. Approximately $15 in taxes there and $65 back.
There is a JNB-DOH flight as well and occasionally the search results will return CPT-JNB-DOH with the CPT-JNB flight being a BA ticket and will charge ~$150 in fuel surcharges.
