It’s not a zero sum situation, everyone is responsible for their own decisions. If I ran a National Park in a high risk wildfire situation, and someone asked me if i would allow hundreds of Boy Scouts to camp at the park for months, then knowing what I know about the behaviours of Boy Scouts I would be totally negligent in my position if I let them camp. Some percentage of boys will not be supervised appropriately, the risk is too great that irresponsible use of fire will happen. The Boy Scout who started the fire would absolutely have made a mistake too, but as the person tasked with management of the park I as well would be responsible for my decision to let a high risk activity occur.
I don’t think it takes a huge amount of experience to know that congregating hundreds of teenagers and young adults is going to lead to close physical contact among young adults. If your goal is to avoid the spread of COVID, it’s a bad idea.
