Why not? If I'm in MRU and want to buy a full-fare ticket on Cathay from JNB to HKG, I imagine they'd be glad to take my money. I'm far from privy to the scheme by which the OW airlines split up the revenues from an xONEx but one could presume Cathay will lose money in the situation being discussed, and chooses not to do so.
