So if people don’t take up art or music during Covid with their excess free time, that seems like reasonably strong evidence that they also wouldn’t take up art or music in a non-Covid world with excess free time.
Not necessarily. Fear and anxiety can inhibit exploratory behavior.
Yeah, to some extent. My impression is that the evidence is somewhere in the ballpark of moderate to strong. I could see an argument for why it should be considered weak, but it’s hard to see an argument for it being zero evidence (I’m not sure if that’s what you’re implying or not).

For me it seems to be more in the range weak-moderate, but I agree, it is definitely not zero evidence.
