This is because if it didn't/can't pass smog check, it is not registered/registerable and so is not "on the road." If it is not "on the road" it is not (officially) adding to the emissions inventory. If it's not adding to the inventory, scrapping it does no good (officially) toward the goal of emissions reductions.

Do you go for a smoke on the golf course before or after you eat your Happy Meal?

Well, you should hide under your chair if you feel offended by someone smoking OUTDOORS on a golf course. Don't choke on your toy either. Those are just 2 of the asinine laws enacted by the looney left coast San Francisco lawmakers.

California was a great place to grow up in the 60s and early 70s; cheap gasoline, inexpensive college education, great freeways and a booming economy. I remember doing 130mph in a friends '66 GTO on I-60 and doing donuts at 7 am on I-57 right after it opened. Neither was very smart, but a lot of fun. I left the state for good in '80 and never looked back. It is still fun to visit occasionally, someone would have to pay me an awful lot of money to get me to even think about moving back. The sad thing is the same people that voted in all the disastrous changes that destroyed Cal, but now hate what the state has become, are now moving to Colorado and trying to do the same thing!
