Given the lower odds of something terrible happening after you contract Covid if you’ve gotten your shots, isn’t it completely rational for people who’ve been boosted to take more risks? Did we expect boosted people to limit risk forever?

I don't think many people are limiting risk. As far as I can tell where I am, people are living life just as it was in 2019. Maybe I'll see one or two masked people a day, but I highly doubt that means everyone else is boosted. It's a good feeling rationalization, but I don't think it's a valid explanation considering what I see happening outside.
