So they "can" fly over the ocean "if they feel like it".

Only if they follow the rest of the FAA safety rules, which includes the VFR regulations and must be in visible contact with the coast and be able to make it to land in the event of a power failure. With all of the pop-up storms/clouds all day long, that hampers flying over the ocean. This is why they fly so close to the coastline.
