If you read the CA tax instructions they reference a few statutes on what would qualify you as a resident. Unlike other states where the statutes are statutes... i.e. entered the state a number of times or stayed in the state a percent of the year, CA counts "ties" to the state. If you have the most ties to CA then you are a CA resident.
But they don't actually count ties using numbers because that would make sense. It's not really correct to count them e.g. +1 bank TX, +1 vote TX, -1 work CA. Instead you count them with a lawyer using lawyer logic, legal math, and judicial physics. This is because CA is the only state in the USA where the lawyers' union is written into the state constitution.
Basically, you are a resident of CA until proven otherwise. This includes everyone,from an ORD 747 CA commuting from Minneapolis to a Vietnamese fishermen living and working in Danang.

Those rules you state are for everyone EXCEPT airline crewmembers. Federal Code specifically addresses this and CA can't supercede it.
