> What is your evidence that children actually do transmit the virus efficiently?
OP's point is about if children transmit the virus. Either they do or don't.
But your question is about the efficiency of how children transmit the virus. It's an entirely different question although your personal choice of weasel words makes it look differently.
It makes no sense to waste time talking about efficiency if you're talking about a known virus transmission vector.

By that measure masks do not work since N95 allows a certain level of particles to transit. Perfection is not necessary, only reducing the replication factor.

That's a stupid remark. N95 are used mainly to reduce the emission of our own droplets, not to eliminate it nor to make us invulnerable.
Still, the recommended approach is still to stay at home and avoid contact altogether. As it's obvious to anyone, no exposure is far better than some exposure.
I have seen multiple independent studies from different countries coming down with a very similar conclusion that children are not good vectors for this thing to spread.
