Well, I am not really sure what you meant by "central point". Every booking source (including the AA RTW desk) is associated with a certain city/country code. So, if you know that for a particular flight, availability for a US-based POS is better, then yes, it would be to your advantage to book through a source that meets that criteria ...
By 'central' I meant a point not associated to any specific country of origin except, of course, the country where the central point is located (USA in this case), working on the assumption that a US-based POS is [possibly?] the least likely to suffer from these capacity controls. Another benefit from this approach is the better synch between what the AA RTW desk sees and what half-blind tools like EF show (I was impressed by the 'view both options' capability of the KVS Tool).
