Indeed they are organisationally different, but to the passenger holding a United through-ticket from Smallville to LA there's no difference except one part of the journey is on a 'tiddly airyplane'.
If they're good enough to carry a major's flight code and livery and do the grunt work for feeding hubs for them, they're good enough to count in accident statistics.
