I agree with you, caveats abound. (As a Permaculture enthusiast the whole agricultural system looks like one big caveat to me! But that's a tangent.) I hope people and information come together well enough to mitigate the worst of the waste and shortages. (Frankly I haven't heard enough Americans saying, "Let's roll!" on this. We should be nailing it down and positioning ourselves to be ready to help the harder-hit nations in the next few months. That's the American way!) All the noise about "sacrifice the weak to save the economy" (coming from about ~15% or 3/20 folks only) is IMO a distraction from focusing on the vital systems and figuring out and doing what has to be done to keep things stable. As long as people don't starve we can sort the paperwork. If you have a bunch of hungry people and a bunch of food in fields there has to be some synergy there, eh? (Not trying to be flip, just upbeat.)
