> The costs associated with widespread everyday masking are severe. You even quoted the ones that I'd mentioned earlier.

Yes, and stated that they are, for the most part, not actually costs.

Masks don't cause accessibility problems, they don't cause child development issues, they don't cause social strife when consistently warn and enforced, and they don't cause abusive policing (police don't enforce mask mandates anywhere in the US, and consistently were one of the least compliant groups!).

You can't keep lying about these supposedly "severe" costs when anyone with eyes can see that they're made up. I mean you can, but it's your credibility lost.
