Given what she had to do (check out of hotel, travel to airport, check in with AA, transit security, etc.), sounds to me as if she stood a good chance of having the 3½ hour problem even if the flight hadn't been late. Perhaps her schedule was a bit ambitious. OTOH, if her actions were officially OK with AA, she would have had no reason to suspect that there would be a problem.
