I dislike this solution.

Draper's concerns mainly reference representation and regulation. Both of which can be achieved by (1) amending the CA and US Constitutions, and (2) delegating more power to the existing counties.

The waste inherent to operating five additional state governments, just to circumvent the status quo, does not seem appropriate.
