Several years ago we had this same argument on the forum. Everyone agreed the law was badly written and open to interpretation. Members of the forum contacted the Marine Patrol and their answer was simple. You can't anchor overnight!
Sleeping and toilet facilities can mean anything they want it to mean including a bucket. Buckets were used as toilets for centuries.
And if you could win the "we don't have toilet facilities" argument the next question would be "where are you going to the bathroom?". The only possible answer is the lake and that is also illegal.
This is the perfect example of an argument you can't win.
