How can you not get this?

At restaurants, they can easily remove tables or leave tables empty. Patrons are pretty immobile once they are seated. Employees can wipe all surfaces in between patrons. You’re in a small group (table) at a restaurant, usually with people from the same household.

At a playground, people are running around, touching the same surfaces. Those same people (kids) are the worst at not touching their eyes, nose and mouth, not keeping masks on or having ill fitting masks. Kids fail to correctly cover sneezes. Kids can’t appropriately keep 6’ apart from others. There is usually no water and soap to wash for 20 seconds.

It is 100% appropriate to  open a restaurant before a park. [/quote]
Except restaurants are inside and playgrounds are outside and the CDC has now said that covid-19 does not actually spread easily on surfaces. [/quote]

+1. Outdoor is safer and less disease-spreading than indoor.

And kids need to move. Adults don't need to stuff their faces indoors at a restaurant. There is documented spread of COVID in restaurants. There is no evidence of it spreading AT ALL outdoors. [/quote]

I generally agree with you that outdoors is SAFER, and it won’t prevent me from enjoying the outdoors, I don’t think the chances of transmission outside is zero.  For example:
