You sort of just explained why the State of California decided it knew better than every incorporated city, in your first sentence.

That also has not gone well. Check the adoption of SB9.

It's going fine. Housing isn't intended to be fixed by a single bill, there's new ones every year and SB9 will be easier to strengthen now that it's actually passed.

Some significant legal victories too: https://www.yimbylaw.org/the-general-plan-rules

"going fine" vs "Despite uproar, few seek to use California’s new housing-density law. What’s stopping them?"..."In San Francisco, 14 property owners have applied to build SB9 projects"

The very opening of the story you just pasted explains why: because San Francisco charged someone trying to use the law a $98,000 fee.

The entire YIMBY project is what's going fine. A specific bill about ADUs is nice but not expected to solve everything.

It'd be going better if parking minimums and the social housing agency get through.

Sunnyvale, not SF. I would be shocked if SF charged that much to deter ADUs.

Why do you keep replying to yourself with single sentences?
