Points #1 and #4 are evident in states who have already re-opened for business: Restaurants are seeing 80% reduction regarding in-room dining year over year, SIP orders being lifted be damned.
Point #1 was reinforced by looking at OpenTable data as well. de Blasio told people to go to restaurants, and on that same day he urged people to congregate in close quarters, reservations were down 34% year over year and had been trending down for 2 weeks.
People aren't stupid despite what the media reports, picking out groups of people to prove a point they want to push.
Furthermore, the lockdowns moved the Overton window for a lot of people, hammering it in their head that they need to practice social distancing. It's not likely going to get any stronger with government-mandated half-measure lockdowns continuing.
