Not guaranteed to work as in, on the ground, not the theory. Deploying such huge infrastructure in crisis mode is almost guaranteed to run into big, deep execution snafus and then we end up stumbling into reopening anyway under desperation.

I'm making a very trivial point. We'll be forced to make the choice, based on short term economic stresses, so the fact that in the long term they are a false choice doesn't affect the fact that in the short term it's a real choice...

I think that this is very country-dependent. With a strict lockdown followed by intense Test/Trace/Isolate, China has saved lives and opened the economy, likely much more robustly than #flattenthecurve countries can. That requires infringements on privacy, unacceptable to US.
