Absolutely you don't need to raft everywhere, all the time and that's why we sometimes go to an NRZ to anchor.
But in some cases and this case especially, the only good anchoring spots are near shore where the bottom is sandy.
The NRZ rules restrict even single boats from anchoring 150' from shore. So making these coves NRZ effectively closes them to anchoring.
People seldom want to anchor in shallow mucky water.
