Has there been a massive surge in crime now that all the criminals feel comfortable wearing their covid-masks? All this stuff is handwaving. Reminds me of all the pre-covid arguments about not letting demonstrators be masked and how muslim women's face coverings would bring society to a crashing halt because you could not interact properly with someone who had a covered face. In other words: little or no evidence. Just some people have a fear of the dark and others find that the indiscriminate lighting of streets disturbs their repose and relaxation.
