Yes, fishing is a commercial venture - all those fresh fish stores and daily marketplaces depend on them, as well as you consumers (customers). (BTW, I didn't cook or eat any fish when I was in HI. Crablegs or shrimp, either)
It looked to me that that ramp structure was pretty old, so I'm not surprised to find: it is!
The fact remains that tired surfers, swimming back to shore, or just bobbing while resting, may be struck by incoming or out-going boat traffic, whose pilot is intent on their mission, whatever that is. No idea of what age, conditon or family the floater (potential fatality) may be, so what IS the best (easiest and cheapest) solution?
Should we let skateboarders use the roads? Those in their youth tend to think they are invincible, but graveyards and critical care facilities are loaded with those naive souls, after the incidents.
(Please notice, I haven't used the word victim here at all.)
