Also if I am not mistaken - aren't there ships that go both on the Great Lakes and the open ocean? That could be a possible criterion. Most lakes don't have ocean-going ships.

That was how I was assuming the rationale went. You do see ocean going vessels on the Great Lakes.

And I think that's how everyone wound up with the zebra mussels. (Bilge discharge from those ships)
