On careful re-reading I believe you're correct. Though if a hypothetical 100% effective zero side-effects vaccine doesn't pass their bar of outweighing psychological harm then it seems unlikely anything could, hence my interpretation of GP as an absolute statement.

Hah, I wish! No, just going with the GP's hypothetical.
I understood the grandparent post to mean that the harm can sometimes outweigh the benefits when the vaccine is forced. Not that it's always the case.

Are you suggesting that the COVID vaccines were able to completely stop transmission?
