You missed golfing eagles point. Wearing a mask 30 feet from anyone might be evidence of a personality that turns an annoyance into a very stressful event.
As Dr. Phil would say, "You cant control what others do, just your reaction".

I got his point very clearly and he repeats it time and again anytime someone says they wear a mask outside the 6' zone or in a place where it doesn't help like in a car. It's the condescending attitude not the "fact" that he states which is correct. Maybe explain it in a way that doesn't make someone look or feel like a fool.
