Would a bypass spoil the look of Lake Colac?

Many people expect a bypass would spoil the look of Lake Colac. For most of us the wide expanse of water would be compromised. Look at even a fairly close road say even 50-100 metres wide ( assume a beach area on this side is obvious in dry times ).
Realistically though, such a change would have relatively low impact on the overall impression from the South, considering the great and currently unattainable benefits in better water quality and reliable depth in the southern lake . The wide expanse of water effect would remain . Not ideal perhaps, but great for the future of Colac and Lake Colac as a recreational and natural lake system for the future . And quite feasible !Increase the value of every property in Colac long term !
Note: the visual impact shown in these photos would be even less if Option M see below - a bigger southern lake area were put forward
