Thanks for the wisdom.
PS: For extra points... are there any US airlines on which I can earn miles for Garuda flights?
When I've flown through BKK they (UA and China Airlines come to mind) would only interline the bag if the layover is less than a set number of hours. I don't remember exactly how many, but I've run afoul of it without overnighting there. Maybe 8 hours?
