The idea with SB10 is that, once the next RHNA cycle starts and cities are required to zone for their share of housing (or face punishment), they will use SB10 as an "easy way out" to upzone while skipping a lot of the usual red tape (CEQA, etc).
Under RHNA and the HAA, if cities fail to zone for their share of housing, many projects will be approved automatically and the city loses its discretionary review authority.
