Lockdown is expen$ive! What does it buy? (1) Flatten curve at pandemic peak, (2) Delay peak hoping for vaccine (3) Delay peak for time to expand docs, beds, ventilators, tests, apps, etc. Only (1) seems cost-effective to me, but if so, deliberate exposure would also help now.

You mean benefits beyond the 3 I explicitly listed? Less pollution? Less other disease transmission?

Yes, see my further comments. Less effort spent on unnecessary work, "face time culture", social pressure to go out and spend money. A quarantine is an external event that makes it socially acceptable to do less wasteful stuff.
