Thank you for the reasonable approach to the madness. I think that when someone is on the move, they have a tendency to head towards whatever mark is in the direction they are going. If all you see is water and a boat, you may be influenced to head towards that boat. I guess a compass could fix that, but most people don't have one.
On the other hand, some people just want to jump other people's spots. Not that there are necessarily any fish there, they just don't have a better way to find them. It seems to me that this happens everywhere I've fished, be it East Coast, West Coast, or in between. Some people are a cut throat bunch, others just don't know better. I'd like to believe that ignorance of fishing etiquette is the norm, but I don't think it's the rule.
