The standard requirement is that the award complies with the governing carrier's fare rules. Unless EY or QR have a fare specified that would allow that routing, then would expect it to be rejected as a single award cost
For AUH-BKK, both EY and QR have very specific permitted routings and neither show a routing that will permit this. I would expect this to be priced as 2 awards

Yes, you are correct for MPM-based fares.
The sole F fare I see for JL is constructed; SEA- SFO +SFO-ICN, so, that's you're actual answer, best as I can see. I just picked a random date though.
But, you're right on the 25% allowed overage on MPM-based fares.

The F1EQ4B fare does not seem to be a constructed fare

Do you mind to also find QR's routing rules on AUH-DOH-BKK-HKG? This is the one I intend to fly and hope it to be a single award.

I'm pretty sure you actually know this and just forgot momentarily.

I guess it must show up different ways on different dates-- the random date I picked (3/31) showed up as one-way only, but not constructed.
Oops, I was looking at F1EQ4B
Regardless, yiky98 was correct, of course, from the very, very first days these awards were introduced rule was (and is) :
But, again, I think you only misplaced that fact momentarily as it's been established throughout literally 100's of these querries.

An All-Partner Award must use the most direct routing, which means either of the following:
1. A published revenue fare's explicitly permitted routing,
or
2. MPM+25% (if the fare doesn't have specified routings)
