DOC replacing Angelus hut to prevent overcrowding.

I have trouble understanding this....
DOC plans to replace the Lake Angelus Hut with a bigger one because it is often overcrowded..... The current Lake Angelus Hut has 26 bunks, they are going to replace it with a 32 bunk hut with a bigger communal area.
Thats a increase of only 6 bunks over the existing one. It would still be overcrowded. So they are going to introduce a booking system to stop overcrowding.
Why not keep the existing 26 bunk hut, then build a new hut nearby and double the number of bunks.... All the booking system would do is prevent people from visting the area.
When I was last there it wasn't the hut that was overflowing, it was the sewerage system. Very unpleasant. It was well overdue for a pump out.
