Then this is all pointless because it will take years to retrofit everything with that level of testing and tracing and make it useful in some way as well as enforcing isolation. We might as well open up and suffer the consequences until we have herd immunity even if that means a lot of deaths.

It doesn't sound like a particularly tall order to me. Also, the alternative isn't opening up - which is utterly psychopathic and would kill millions - but continue in lockdown until a vaccine is developed within two years.
