No. How would you prove it? As soon as there existed some document allowing one to "get back to normal" in some way, I guarantee you there will be a black market for those documents, to the point where they become useless. Oh, wait, it's already happening [1].

Is that more useless than the person just choosing not to mask in the first place?

Yes people may break the laws or not follow the rules, that doesn’t mean there is no value. There’s surely a black market for passports, ids, etc, does that mean those documents are useless?
