AS' systems tend to not like connections in non-standard connection cities. Got a call in ABQ once about picking up my cooler when I was on a connection there... It was tagged thru, but made it to the baggage claim. They were able to redirect it back though TSA and to the aircraft in time thankfully. I don't think many folks connect there. Just like JFK- it's not the most common to fly SFO-JFK-SEA, but does sound like something I would try.
