>the inconvenience

Oh hell no. I did not live through an "inconvenience". I and my kids now inhabit a world that will deal with the societal and economic damage for many years.

And no, I'm not just going to let slide a historically unprecedented, in scope and scale, change in citizen/government dynamics, and for a disease where you couldn't even begin to question the official narrative without being branded an evil anti-vaxxer.

We absolutely need to analyse what was done, and sort the panicked, fear-driven polices from what was useful.

So maybe analyze it instead of leading with the conclusion first? Don't forget to come up with a plausible better concrete alternative so we can compare/contrast.

Melbourne, Australia had government imposed lockdowns for most of late May to late October 2021.

Where I live (Wales, UK), we had "local lockdowns" (where citizens were not allowed to leave they county they lived in) until late 2021. Even without that, there were still significant restrictions in place on our daily lives, like in many other places.

"Won" means that we are all allowed out of our houses?

I'm complaining about the damage that has been done.
