This is simple, if your have an N ticket, you will be BG6 and not allowed to carry on a bag.
What is a little strange is on an international BE ticket the domestic segment is usually not a N ticket, do you have a long stop at LAX?? Are your bags being checked thru at LAX?
As for the documentation being out of date, yes UA is slow at times getting all the different web pages updated -- it could be that simple.
The fare rules for the earlier SFO-ORD states NO CARRYON BAGGAGE
