If you re in a NWZ, it is obvious where you are, and it's an easy stop/ticket.

I note that prevailing winds coming from the NW lead to some good sized waves squeezing between Pig and Lockes, and depending on your course may give some difficulty to a boat trying to go <6 kts.

This rule is violated constantly between Pig and Locke. Probably why the proposal was put forth.
