Crazy idea: Just take it, suffer no negative consequences and be fine!

Unclear why the cynicism is warranted here. They’re not just making a guess, they performed an experiment that is inline with a comparable experiment from non affiliated SA scientists to yield these results. Should they not run this type of experiment and make a useful and true recommendation to the public? Would that be a better more pure scenario for you?
No they should not make recommendations to the public, because they aren't a public agency - they have a conflict of interest. It's like a hedge fund manager giving public advice on stock picks.
Why not? Stock picking is their job. Given that logic, a teacher shouldn't tell people how to teach their kid to read, and a plumber shouldn't tell people how to change a faucet.

Exactly this.
And what? so we shouldn't be protected because capitalism? There is a deafening lack of coherence here.
Product manufacturer recommends use of its product. Surprise!
If they can show that the product helps to save lifes and at some point get back to a normalcy, and especially if there’s no other significantly better product available, I really don’t have an issue with that.
Not doing your side any favors here.

At this point, does anyone believe we’ll get back to normalcy? What’s the path?
