What we are really talking about is that people want to build sturdy permanent crib or piling docks, like people have been building on Winni for centuries.
The department has decided that in most cases only temporary docks are permitted. While these are suited for protected locations and small boats, they can be too fragile for docking large boats in rough water.
People have the right to build a dock that suits their needs, they shouldn't have to fight with bureaucrats who say learn to dock better.
