It appears that the districts that may become "more competitive" will be those held by conservatives.

Despite all that, there are many reasons to oppose Prop 77. I posted many of them Here

No one knows for sure. If you were right, the Democrats should be for it. What one can say with certainty is the politicians like custom-designed districts where they can choose their own voters. Prop. 77 isn't perfect but nothing can be. The end of gerrymandering would be a healthy development for democracy and I don't really care who stands to benefit or lose from it. The average Joe doesn't have job security. I don't see what's so special about politicians keeping theirs even while they ignore pressing matters the state needs to attend to.
