If the developed countries just said "Let it go", the developed world would be a much different spot than we are today. Definitely we would have been at a greater risk of being much worse. I am not unsatisfied with how we've handled it.

I don't really disagree. Even if a lot of it ended up being mostly about pushing back the number of cases until a lot of people got vaccinated. Certainly Australia at the moment sure suggests that you can delay things but it's pretty difficult to delay cases of all degrees of severity indefinitely.
