So no need to wear a mask then.

  Yes this is actually correct. Continuing to wear a mask in public is about compliance, not safety per se: if exceptions were made for the vaccinated, people who just don't want to wear a mask would be hard to separate from those who are no longer at risk of catching or spreading the disease. As someone who has had natural immunity (it sucked, made a full recovery) for most of the pandemic, this has been on my mind, since masking is purely cosmetic for me.

    This isn't stressed enough though. When dealing with such issues we also need to consider group behaviour as a whole. Every additional exception introduces costs and risks so it makes sense for a part of the population to signal compliance unnecessarily.

      Exactly. Plus there will likely be (small) additional benefits from reduced transmission for other diseases that are spread through respiratory droplets and aerosols.
