To cut back on the amount of fuel that they carry??
I am sorry,but I think for most people that indicates a serious flaw in the bean counter's mentality. They are over-stepping the ways to cut costs.
Plus if you think about it, the fuel doesn't evaporate. If you arrive in Chicago from LA with extra fuel, it's still there in the airplane's tank. (Yeah extra fuel costs a bit more to transport, but it is there for many reasons. If a pilot running a route that normally has tailwinds instead experiences headwinds, it is gonna be needed.)
