For me, the biggest advantage AA had was OW first class lounge access. I'm assuming Alaska will have the same access?

Would love to hear fellow FTers thoughts

If you're paying for the premium cabin and don't need upgrades or other status benefits on the airline of travel, and the AS MP earning / redemption scheme looks preferable to you, then jumping ship to AS may make sense. Otherwise, I'd stick with the airline program for the airline on which I'm usually traveling.
