Where do some of you people get off getting nasty with someone over something this trivial? I guarantee that if I could look into your life you probably do some things that really annoy others. I'm a polite and courteous person when I'm treated in that manner but don't get all arrogant and superior with me if I absently mindedly go the wrong way. I can guarantee that I will invade you 6' of space and get nose to nose with you and show how haughty and arrogant I can be.
It's not trivial. The fact that you think it is, is part of why we have the rules in the first place. Because there are some people who will deny there's even a problem that needs to be solved, while people are dying from the non-existent problem.

And - if you "get nose to nose" with someone during a pandemic while there are actual rules requiring you to keep your distance, don't be surprised some day, if someone calls the police to complain about being physically harassed and threatened. You can get nose to nose with an officer.
