The reason I disregard the door mask Nazis is simple: Every major retailer has an ironclad policy of NOT confronting people in the store if they suspect someone is shoplifting, even if the employee SEES IT HAPPEN.
It is said this is due to avoiding liability for being wrong, prevent conflict, etc.
If they're going to avoid confronting a confirmed shoplifter even when they know they're guilty, who are they to harass potentially paying customers just to ensure they're following an arbitrary standard for "safety" like wearing a mask?
Masks are little more than a visual compliance metric.
