You could easily reduce agriculture water use by 10% just by banning the growth of super-thirsty crops like rice. The farmers would just shift to growing something else. And what orifice exactly did you pull "there is no impact to reducing residential water use" out of? There is certainly a huge inconvenience to residents, and it makes the state a much less desirable place to live. Urban resident generate most of the revenue of the California government.

Here's a clue: it's not restaurants serving glasses of water.
