A mask cannot be more comfortable than no-mask unless you're in some very cold environment. Suggesting that a mask in 2022 has anywhere near the utility of pants is off by orders of magnitude.

I'd honestly rather not wear pants for the rest of my life than go back to wearing a mask every day.

As you may note, that's not what I said.

Didn't say that either.

It's simply strange to me that people get so worked up over it, just like it would be strange if people got super worked up over wearing pants.

In my experience, absent of the 'hot/stuffy mask face' it's no big deal. YMMV
