Does ticket stock or codeshare matter, or is it literally just if one of the legs is operated by a US carrier?

Example for clarity:
XXX - MEX on AM ticket, AM flight number, operated by Aerolitoral
MEX - JFK on AM ticket, AM flight number, operated by Delta

Also curious if somehow round trip or one-way made any difference?
XXX is where? In Mexico?
Aerolitoral seems to be a regional airline of Aeroméxico https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerom%C3%A9xico_Connect
To me you are over thinking this and getting confused on what cabotage means
Is it just a normal flight from regional Mexico and then onto USA? Like 1000's of others
