I view that more as the pretense not to wear masks, not the actual reason people are opposed.
When experts told people early on not to wear masks, in order to conserve supply for health care workers, I don't think they realized they were creating habits that would last longer than the mask shortage.

Selfish people would have heard “N95 is better” and bought as much as they could.
