When you get to DFW you will likely be dealing with IB staff- who won't be able to change the AA booking and will need to get AA on the phone. Also by getting it addressed in LAX you can control the timing/when you arrive, whereas at DFW the duration of your layover is out of your control.
One correction. IB does not fly to DFW so you will not encounter IB staff there. The AA is the only airline operating the DFW-MAD route.
