In my opinion, high speed rail and suburbia are not tied together. I don't believe a high speed rail line between SF and LA, or even San Diego is being designed to handle daily work commuters, and the cost to ride it will also make daily commute prohibitive. ( It will be designed for longer travel, like taking a plane.) If and when one line is built, most suburbans in the LA region won't be anywhere near a station to have any effect on suburbia thriving or dying in the LA region. Metrolink and expanding light rail is tying LA suburbs together for more than a high speed line ever will.
