As well, deep water ducks such as sea ducks and the like aren’t as likely to ingest lead shot due to their feeding habits as are those that frequent marshes, shallow ponds and lakes and estuarine habitat.
But lumping all waterfowl hunters into one group is easier for the athorities to maintain control and police them all alike.
