I don't think I disagree. If there was a good time to consider full lockdown, it was at the beginning of the pandemic when little information about it was known. The more we learn about it, the less it seems like a real threat.

But.. things have evolved since then. We have entire WFH movement ( and I am saying this as its proponent ) banking on its staying power ( and most of the old school management hates it ) and we have political people eyeing the power and money that could be tapped just by scaring people.

It is weird. It feels like a lifetime ago that I typed on this very forum something along the lines of:

'we're in this together thing lasted whole two weeks'

We are way past that and it shows.

Agreed. A really aggressive lockdown right at the start would have made sense.
