I would argue that opening up is unrealistic.
How are things going to pan out, when we apply selection pressure to the virus, while letting the virus sieve through the whole human population, creating dangerous variants due to our leaky vaccines? [1]
I would have had agreed with you if we had a sterilizing vaccine that would help us to reach herd immunity. But we don't.
Those travels which cannot afford 14 days quarantines, are non-essential travels. We fortunately have internet and the possibility to do remote meetings.
The only thing missing is tourism, though. That's sad, but better travel locally than killing people.
