>There's a middle ground between pretending something doesn't exist, and obsessing over its existence.
And there is no middle ground between pretending a phantasm doesn't exist and obsessing over its (apparent) existence. Just chase a shadow, till you're blue in the face.

>Sort of like, I don't know, testing symptomatic people for COVID-19, giving them proper treatment, and allowing the young to circulate the virus while shielding the elderly. If you ignore it, then the young don't get treated properly and risk long term consequences, the elderly get exposed, etc.

You have an "immune system" for the purposes of doing all of the above, only better. Literally ignore it, let nature do the thinking. A bit too much to ask the pedantic hypochondriac though, to simply do nothing and shut the fuck up about their weenie problems.

Yes yes and a million other things I'm sure you can think of as an excuse to literally kill me with your kindness. Just keep repeating history.
