your argument is that government should not intervene to regulate private industry whatsoever?
No, government should only get involved when it is absolutely necessary to do so. You keep bringing in all of these "what if" scenarios, maybe those are necessary for government to get involved. But in this case it is not.

Well yeah, I'm bringing in "what if" scenarios that are easily possible situations that would affect a very large portion of society. Plane travel? Basic retail stores?
Long story short, I think there are two essential questions here:
(1) Do you believe there are legitimate reasons for government intervention/regulation of private industry; and
(2) if answer to #1 is "yes" then the question becomes 'is this scenario a legitimate reason for some of that government intervention'?
I tend to believe that unfettered ability of any and all private industry to require a vaccination greatly overshadows many if not most of the reasons that we currently allow for government intervention. This would be toward the top of the list for such intervention, IMO.
But reasonable minds can differ. I understand that reality as well.
