Typically most people would not prefer to stay with the 1st stepfather than with the mother in a case like that.
But my point is that I had a mother, father, stepmother and stepfather. Are you saying if some freak accident killed three of the four people leaving only my stepfather or stepmother alive they would not have legally been allowed to claim me? They would still be a parent at that point since there was no divorce.

If she were Californian her options would open to include her original stepdad.
And how does this even work? Suppose the kid in question is very young.
Woman(A) and Man(A) have a child.
Woman(A) and Man(A) divorce.
Woman (A) has custody and also marries Man(B).
Woman (A) divorces Man(B) and marries Man(C).
Does that mean Man(B) could try and fight for custody because he was briefly a parent despite not being the biological father?
