Interestingly, I’ve often seen people wear masks incorrectly (with their nose poking out) in places where it’s no longer mandatory to wear masks. I have trouble interpreting what their intentions are. Are they trying to signal that they follow the science but not very hard? Are they simply ignorant of how to wear a mask (but I don’t see this as often on planes, where enforcement is more common)? Are they subtly signaling defection with an ambiguous signal?
