However, don't ever recall receiving such a text from AF, irrespective of whether purchased directly or via DL.

Never had any issues at JFK.
Some airlines want docs checked before boarding, some look at all passports while boarding, some do face scan instead. I guess some are still doing the "did you pack your own bags" and putting a sticker on the passport. A bit more consistency (or at least advance notice) would be nice.
