Hi Doug,
I think your point is very sensible.
All members of my immediate family have had both Alpha and Delta covid and honestly, for all that we tried to quarantine to avoid passing it on, it seemed to be an entirely fruitless effort. The door handles looked lovely after all the bleaching, but that was all it achieved.
Having said that, my son's friend also caught Delta, and passed it onto no one at all in his immediate family. So I think the science of transmission may be quite complicated, once you get down to the individual level.
I do see your point about showing institution-level responsiblity too though. I think that being seen to take the situation seriously is a good thing, on both an institution and individual level, and must reduce anxiety for people.
I suppose if the flautist is willing to put the silly hat on their instrument, there's a decent chance that they would also be willing to take a test before coming out if they had symptoms. At that level, the social signalling really does count for something.
