Bear Lover, if the tragedy that you are referring to had taken place with a Larson or some other family boat instead of a Baja (that was not doing a ridiculous speed either) would this be an issue?
I can see the noise portion as a valid complaint for a few boaters who are breaking the law, but congestion, pollution, conservation, etc are not to be solved by this. I think that you will see zero change in congestion. Also, performance boat owners take pride in their machines and typically keep them in tip-top running condition. A proper fuel mix, typically on the lean side keeps pollution down. Its the old 2 stroke out boards and poorly maintained family boats that dump pollution into the lake. And as far as swamped loons nests we have discussed numerous times where the big wakes come from, certainly not from fast boats...
