When the people whose fire insurance was cancelled in the last months start to come out of the shock of having lost everything to the fires they will face the harsh reality that there is no way to rebuild. The time to get permits in California can be up to 3 years, even without battling the Coastal Commission. So reminiscent of Lahaina, the option many will take will be to sell out to Vangard or Blackrock for the value of the land, pennies on the dollar, and leave the state.

Funny how convenient that will be for those who will proceed to build the mythical 15 minute Smart City in time for the upcoming Summer Olympics.
