It was unclear, because you wrote:
a middle-of-the-night stop in Kansas City on the SFO-PIT redeye.

fwiw, the plane had plenty of fuel to get to SFO. But it needs to have fuel to get to SFO, then to some number of diversion airports that don't have weather issues, plus xx minutes of circling, etc.
