Fluid dynamics are notoriously complicated. And AFAIK we also lack good models for how long any particular aerosol cloud remains dangerous over time / travel-distance. That makes it really hard for (most?) anyone to quantify the risk level of a particular environment, or to design a mitigation with well-understood risk/cost tradeoffs.
Compare that to a simple ballistic model, where:
- most adults can intuitively grasp and apply such a model, and
- it's somewhat easier to calculate a risk/cost tradeoff for mitigations.
