CX credits 865 and 888 to its own frequent-flyer program exactly the same number of miles and tier points as from its six non-stop flights*. I claim no knowledge of how any of these flights credit to BA's program, though.
*unless you've purchased both legs as separate tickets; I've wanted to try this to satisfy my curiosity, but it seems a bit risky with regards to immigration/security

You just need a good TA that knows how to sell this kind of route in order to get fullcredit

Alaska refused my request for separately credit the segments with that argument and the fact I only had one boarding pass stating HKG-JFK despite the YVR stop.

Oh I see, in my case I always had two boarding pass(hkg-yvr and yvr jfk) but I specifically asked my TA to have it booked as two separate coupons

I should have done so (can work it on priceline too). As CX tickets almost always offer free transfer in YVR as part of ticket conditions so the price is same and extra miles earned

I think there are some extra taxes, not sure tho. For the comfort and the extra avios and TP's totally worth it
