There are no less risky areas left to build into in the Los Angeles area. To build more you have to fight nimbys to change neighborhoods from mostly single family residences and build for density increases.

I agree that doing nothing is an increasingly unviable option

Yes. I live in Los Angeles. Huge swaths of our entire city are ripe for development— the safest areas are often some of the least densely populated, and that needs to change.
