You're making the argument that it might happen in the future.

The original argument was that it did happen.

Beyond that, the main factor for vaccine induced immune escape is incomplete vaccination or ineffective vaccination, not targeted vaccination. The existing vaccines are not even that targeted as they target the entire spike protein - the only other antigen source would be the capsid.

The original argument was:

> depending on a vaccine based on a single gene is what will (has already) lead to variants

It's the "(has already)" part that you're overly fixated on, and is not a charitable interpretation of the comment given the extraordinary amount of supporting evidence I've provided.

Listen to the feedback you're getting from others here - it doesn't seem to be getting through to you.
