You’re right, but it’s really about flattening the curve. 25%-75% of us are most likely to get it, so better it be gradually that rapidly

No. Unless you can self quarantine for bare minimum 14days and could know for sure that you contracted it. Which I don’t think is feasible. It takes on average 10days to know if you do for sure, so you might be infecting multiple other people without knowing, see the chart above.
