Also, California cities dominated by Alaska would just be the null set, no? SAN and STS would be the closest to belonging there, but I wouldn't call the AS presence "dominating" at either airport.

I would beg to differ: SFO, OAK and MRY are all reasonable alternatives to SJC. AS also offers nonstop service between MRY and SAN for cities not served out of SJC.
ONT, PSP, SBA, SNA, LGB, and BUR are all reasonable alternatives to LAX, generally better served by big 3.
AS has lots of options out of FAT - north and south.
