> how can they fuck things up worse than PG&E has

All three of these are possibilities:

- more fires

- more days without power

- more expensive

Right but basically every CCE in California has cheaper rates than PG&E. So "more expensive" is very unlikely on power generation. It may be more expensive because PG&E decided to extract all of the cash and neglect maintenance, unlike other California investor-owned utilities (SoCal Edison, SDG&E). But that boat has already sailed.
