I actually had said "I don't know if I have my boarding passes anymore," and he said something along the lines of "we need the boarding passes to validate it. If you don't have it you have to send us as much information as you can." He later also said the ticketing receipt wouldn't suffice... until I realized I actually kept all the boarding passes in the side pocket of my laptop bag.

Nope, a completely valid itinerary that was all on a single ticket. HKG-HND-LAX-SFO, nothing too strange about that, no forced overnight connections or anything either.
