Costs always matter. It’s rarely said in polite company but it’s true.

I suppose it’s impossible to know if we’re striking the right balance at the moment, but it’ll be interesting to see the analysis after it’s over.

I think you’re missing the point. It’s hard to tell when preventative actions work. It’s easy to tell when they fail. Right now the evidence is things would be a lot worse without them.

I’m criticising the denominator, not the numerator.
