Here's one good thing that came out of it though:
"The problem is that Nevada has a specific statute that essentially makes it a PC 148 if you don't identify yourself during a lawful detention. California does not have such a statute and there is case law (In re Gregory S. (1980) 112 Cal.App.3d 764) which suggests that it is not a PC 148 to fail to identify oneself during an investigative stop. If you dedide that the situation demands a series of database checks to ensure the individual may legally carry this gun then you need to document the reasons for doing so making sure you describe your observations and conclusions."
So, "sterile carry" is not resisting arrest or otherwise unlawful.
ETA - Hmmm... they also listed PC 626.95 which (correct me if I'm wrong) is only a violation if you have already violated 417, 12031, or 12025. Again, it looks like it's made to leave certain key elements out. Wonder if that's on purpose.
