That's an extra 5 gallons only if it is done at the point of consumption.
To do it for all water- showers, washing dishes, laundry, etc- would require RO for all potable water for the city water supply.
Depending on where in California you are, that much extra water consumption (since the waste will have an even higher concentration of harmful chemicals) isn't exactly an option.
