I am good with where i am now, I want to now focus on how to maximize FF mileage accrual. Hoping to use AA and AY FFPs for accruing miles. Is there a downside to accruing miles with two progams as compared to one. I have ZERO status with OW and since in a Star Alliance hub city, the RTWs will be my main source of OW flying.

I am sure now this will be main source of RTW flying.
Why 2 ffp's?
What status/ff miles-avios do you hope to get? Better to get OW Sapphire with one ffp. AY OWS gives you lounge access. AA OWS has limited lounge access. Avios ff currency is used by QR, BA, AY, IB & IE
Changing frequent flyer numbers is a reservation can be problematic. Does not always work. At times a boarding pass can the 1 ffn printed, but still credit to the other.
