The issue was this particular prop was basically mascaraing as a piece of the constitution by limiting future legislation. No simple law is allowed to do that. It can change current powers, but has no force against future rules. It is a limit on the prop system, similar to how the law of one legislature cannot block a future law from a future legislature. To get that kind of force of law you need to get into the constitution. Yeah, it limit's the prop's power as the legislature could theoretically turn right around and gut the prop, but that's something you're supposed to punish with the ballot box. That said, this all seems like a technicality to me, some verbiage added to the prop that sounded good but wasn't passed by any good constitutional lawyers, rather than the actual core of the prop being bad.
