I wasn’t aware of WN flying anything within SoCal and anything within NorCal. All their California flights are between the two general areas, not within them.
Even in the thick of Covid, United was operating SAN-LAX (I picked up three $30 one ways to mileage run when United had that fly three flights promo back in early 2021). LAX-SBA was nowhere to be found back then, yet now it’s outlasts the SAN route? Crazy. Also a minor note, United has drastically scaled back SFO-SMF, an intra NorCal route I frequent, to only twice a day in November. The earliest of which is at 5PM. Not great for overnight T-PAC arrivals into SFO.
