Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems hideously over-engineered:

sorting imports in is barely a problem to begin with.

I'm always impressed when I hear about how far in advance these programs are planned out. all the project planning I've done personally has had time horizons of a year at most, and usually much less...

pandemic commentary 

it's weird listening to a podcast from early last year hearing people talking about how they are dealing with the end of the pandemic. I definitely started going out more after I got vaccinated, no mask indoors and among people for recreational purposes, but I definitely wasn't seeing that as "the end of the pandemic" or "after COVID". Like, that wasn't even approximately true at any point. Leaving aside case rates in the US, pandemics are global by definition, and other countries weren't anywhere near the US in vaccine stock.

they just really seemed delusional. it was also sad because they seemed a bit screwy from living through the pandemic to that point.

also, I know this can come across as very crass: people live in these countries, and their fates aren't an idle game, but I'm asking because I *am* interested. What happens between these countries has an effect on what happens in mine, so it's a question that will have consequences in my life eventually.
