Sorry, it just seems weird to me that people think ending the mitigation efforts won't lead to more cases.

Are you really still missing the point? Tens of thousands of people gathering for days on end in tight unsanitary conditions screaming and shouting all across the country makes it impossible to accurately determine the affects of reopening. So much so that it’s basically pointless to talk about how much reopening is contributing to an increase in cases.
If I hypothesize that Hiroshima would see x amount of deaths from a ground invasion, but then the bomb is dropped unexpectedly, my prediction and discussion of how many are dead with regards to my prediction is useless at that point. That’s basically what happened. Worst case scenario for a virus spreading occurred and still is occurring. Coronavirus bombs are dropping everywhere which were clearly not part of the reopening plans and discussion when thinking about the affects of reopening.
