I don't really think you fully appreciate what how your "real plan" or your accompanying nitpicks would be received by the average citizen. The biggest pitfall, as has already been pointed out by another reply, is that it creates concrete expectations that the government will be held accountable for.

Secondly, most of your nitpicks are great if you want to nerd out over the details of the epidemic, but most people are not going to find small details like static versus dynamic surge capacity or suppression versus mitigation useful at all or relevant to them at all.

A sprinkling of Dunning-Kruger here..

Thank you for your reply. I don't understand the objection that this is locking government in. Every level of government keeps setting dates then changing them, so I don't see how changing a criteria for a level is worse.

That’s because you don’t understand what you are talking about. You have waded into a debate where people are informed and you are not, yet when faced with an informed opinion you dismiss it as it doesn’t make sense. This is type of argumentation is a disease, ruining our ability to learn things and expose ourselves to other opinions on HN
