uh, no

cheesy keyboards, simple chords, emptiness of any classical structure, no song cycles, no overall concept, no lengthy passages

Asia is closer to a band like Europe than Yes

as US has pointed out, prog bands have done AOR (it was a pretty popular thing for old prog bands to put out AOR albums in the early 90s), these include:-

Yes - Talk
Procol Harum - The Prodigal Stranger
Jethro Tull - Crest of a Knave
Genesis - Invisible Touch
