You realize that positive tests do, in fact, mean that someone actually tested positive for coronavirus right?

And if you are positive with no symptoms, then what? Lock yourself up?

You DO realize that, for 97% of the US population, testing positive has little to no health consequence, and offers this cool thingy known as lifetime immunity?

You miss the point.

Higher positive numbers do NOT necessarily indicate an increase in spread.

How many countries are testing asymptomatic people?

There are plenty of false positives out there. Including a set of, I think it was 20, tests sent in not swabbed with fake names and they all came back positive.

No.

NOT when antibody tests (which show recovered cases) are lumped in with active cases.

And NOT where repeated tests on the same person are counted multiple times.

How damn dumb do the think we are?
