My understanding was that this was an either/or thing, not a both/and (i.e., I either had to have a Canadian billing address OR be physically in Canada at the AA ticket counter when I make the purchase). Is that understanding incorrect?...
I agree with your understanding. The explanation you were given sounds wrong to me.
