It is more politically prudent for the state to allocate portions of the huge budget surpluses to local projects than to CAHSR. So state money for the section BART tunnel is SF Bay is the obvious one for NoCal and the Sepulveda Pass line is the obvious one for SoCal.

If, for example, California lobs $5 billion in state money at the Sepulveda project, then the money Metro has allocated to that can be shifted to something else.
