Please double check your city building codes on GFCI.
In our city, we are apparently required to make sure that each circuit has GFCI AND AFCI protection. This means every time I touch any circuit (replacing outlets etc), I need to put a dual combo outlet on (unless there is a breaker that does both of these). Something like this:

If you hire a local electrician, he will make sure that the work is done up to code. If you did it yourself, however, I will make sure it is up to code to avoid any future liabilities.
Shouldn't this have been called out in the inspection report? So if I go based on what it says in that report (the only mention of "AFCI" is in relationship to the breaker panel - all outlets he just mentions "GFCI"). Presumably the inspector is basing his report on the current city code, no?
BTW: is it possible to even obtain a copy of the current 2019 California electrical code booklet for free? It seems like you have to pay for this
Closest thing I've found thus far is here (from the city of Santa Ana):
https://www.santa-ana.org/sites/default/files/2016%20RES%20Electrical%20Guidelines_external%20%20(1).pdf"AFCI Protection:
Almost all 125-volt 15 and 20 ampere branch circuits in a dwelling must be arc-fault circuit-interrupter
(AFCI) protected. This is all circuits - including lighting (closets too) and the power for smoke or carbon
monoxide alarms. A listed combination-type overcurrent protective device is required.
These circuits must be 2-wire (black & white) only. If 3-wire (black, red, & white) circuits are used, then
two-pole AFCI circuit breakers would be needed. Only bathrooms, garage, crawl space, attic, and outdoor
circuits do not require this special protection. An indoor switch for an exterior light must also have AFCI.
See section 210.12"
and
"A ground-fault circuit-interrupter protected receptacle (GFCI) outlet is required adjacent to each basin in
every bathroom. Outlet must be located within 3 ft. of basin edge. Locate on wall, partition, on face, or side
of cabinet. In no case, more than 12 inches below basin. See section 210.52(D).
At least one, 20-ampere branch circuit must be installed to serve only receptacle outlets in bathrooms. That
circuit may power lights, fans and other loads in that same bathroom only when that circuit feeds no other
rooms. In other words, each bathroom must have its own dedicated circuit if anything besides the
bathroom sink receptacle outlet is fed from that circuit. 210.11(C)(3)"
