We can start making a list of business people who will definitely benefit from a higher winter level:

Mechanics who will be winterizing and summerizing individual boats multiple times each winter.

Mechanics who will be repairing engines after the inevitable "I don't need to winterize, no way it can get too cold."

Marinas who will be selling boats to people who have inboards or inboard/outboards, but need outboards to use in the winter.

Marinas that store boats, since now more people will be adding another boat to their stable.

And the one that affects me the most: dock companies who will be doing deep-water repairs that could be done on dry land if the lake would drop three more feet. (I need to replace a broken pole. If the water drops to 481, I can do the work myself for the cost of the pole and two bags of cement. If the water only drops to 484, I have to hire a dock company to bring over a barge and use a pile driver to sink a new post. The lowest estimate I have so far is more than TWENTY times the cost of doing it myself. That's more than $1,000 compared to less than $50.
