Speaking of citing sources, here is one for you. Sweden basically thought like you did and had very minor limitations in place, compared to much of the world and its neighbors. Well, guess what, they now have one of the highest mortality rates int he world because of it and their chief epidemiologist said he would do it different next time.

So, you have made arguments that the we can't make the cure worse than the disease. So looking from an economic standpoint, you would think Sweden would at least be holding on strong financially since they really didn't shut anything down. Well, you would be wrong there as well. They are currently having their worst financial crisis since WWII. While this is due to many things, obviously, the point is that leaving things open didn't cause them to fair any better than anyone else, all while now suffering some of the highest fatality rates.

I won't go on much more about it, I will link to it for your reference.
