It's not obvious. At all. That's like saying "people don't want to die from a novel coronavirus so it's obvious they'll take the vaccine". It feels obvious on a surface level, but it turns out reality is way more messy and unpredictable when you don't just run the caricature of it in your head but when it actually plays out for real.

Nothing about how this is going to go is obvious.
