To be fair, airlines do offer status matches. If not an outright match, they might have challenges.

Are there any hacks or routes to matching this with any other airlines or alliance?
IIRC, you missed out on a few that recently ended for ST or OW or both. SAS was matching until a few days ago. Not sure if A3 was included, though. IMHO, both OW and ST have far more useful entry-level statuses than *A. Their *S equivalents both offer priority check-in and seating benefits, something I think *A should add as well.
