My understanding is that secondary armaments were intended to be used in such a role, and tertiary armaments in the AA role.
Given that units have only one weapon rating what you probably should have for a multi-weapon platform is a blend of those weapons over each of their effective ranges.
You're probably right. Direct fire by 8+-inch main guns against barges and landing craft would probably be a little overkill.

Perhaps I shouldn't ask that question!
