Not disagreeing with you but IIRC with FCP7 and earlier it wasn't uncommon to have to export a file of your timeline and then use that to output. That's pretty similar to making a mixdown. As ama is a step into FCP7 like media access and lack of management it seems to also come with some of the same baggage FCP had/has. The most disconcerting thing I've read is that even after transcoding/consolidate to real Avid media some people have still had to use the mixdown approach. That's ucky.

Some of the AMA source is Apple Intermediate. Some h.264. Some HDV. Some PhotoJPEG. Some is SD, some is HD, etc etc. The audio is a mix of audio from the AMA clips and some imported MXF audio.
