>>That lockdown report makes exactly the same kind of errors your earlier reasoning did (i.e. attribute costs to lockdowns, rather than the pandemic, and ignoring possible benefits);

The lockdown report teases apart the costs of lockdowns from those of the non-lockdown-related effects of the pandemic, and also looks at the benefit of lockdowns.

I don't think you're making a genuine effort to appraise it, making it pointless for me to engage in this.
