So I'm not quite following the FAA financing rules - is the rationale that because part of Airtrain fulfills a circulator function, the whole system - even non-circulator parts to Howard Beach and Jamaica - gets financing

Yep. That's the FAA's logic. If the sections that we (or most people) consider non-circulator parts were to be officially classified as non-circulator parts there would not have been FAA approval to add a ticket charge for its capital cost and operation. The FAA and PA classify the Jamaica leg as part of the airport circulator and not as mass transit for that very reason.
